me too getting Aceshigh .exe error
-
Yeah me too.
Just my 10c =)
-
Me too, or er... uh, six. Very, very bad freezes, sometimes three in a row in the space of 2-4 seconds. Missed many shots because of a solid freeze and was even froze up solid for about 2 seconds that got me killed more than once. All this in my first 8-10 minute experience of the new update.
-
Add me to this list ... freezes are killing me ... :D
Seems to happen more when I am flying and when switching views via the hat.
I am running hirez.
-
Talking to most people with this last night it seems that they were all using hi-res pack... is this the case with you guys? I had this problem before, downgraded my video drivers and deleted my cache folder and it seems to have fixed it.
-
I have this problem, and I'm not using the hi-res skins pack.
-
<<<< is using the High Res Pack with everything cranked all the way up... never had the problem before.

Yep, that is when it happens most. Also when evading.
Also using Hi-res 2.09 pack
-
It seems there's a major bug that ties too many things to the range sliders or something. Things like CVs not being visible, not seeing acks and GVs and anything that you normally should.
I think whatever this huge bug is, it's screwing your graphics over. Lag in hat switch means it's trying to process too much. crash on hat switch = something not right.
Hopefully, for my FPS' sake, it'll get fixed in the next patch.

I got freezes the first time I ran it....
the first freeze was during the first time I fired the guns, then second freeze was when the first hit sprites were displaying on the target.
It almost seemed to be the same stutter you get the first time you see a new aircraft skin. l
-
Tried -
Defrag
Delete cache
Login
Cache rebuilds
Still getting the mini freezes.
Pre patch game ran really smooth.
Game seems to load a lot faster now even when pre-caching skins, is the bug there perhaps?
-
Downloaded the new hires pack... slightly better.... still unflyable. Really bad.

are we supposed to do that? Down load the Hires Pack again? There was nothing in the read me file about that???
-
Hitech said there'll be a patch tomorrow (I think tomorrow) to fix this.
-
I noticed my hard drive goes crazy during the stutters.
Sounds like texture thrashing to me, however, I do have a 256MB gfx card, with only 100MB used.
-
I have a 528 mb PCI did the delete cache better still... but i still get some freezes
-
Well, nothing has fixed the freeze frame problem so far. The update to the update to the update, at this point, has my frame rate down to 9-16 if there is more than 12-15 planes in the air around me. I enjoyed pushing and pulling the nose of my plane up and down just to watch the contineous little stutters. Reminds me the last time I was on Valium. LOL
I have a top end machine (P4-3.0ghz, 1Gb RAM, 7800GS video, high-end DSL with Ethernet connection. Prior to this round of updates it ran regularly at 70-75 fps and never below 60. Also, I checked my system tonight and my CPU was contineously pegged at 100% with everything else shut down on my system. The game was not playable so I left a squad night because I couldn't see anything coming at me or going away, let alone shoot at it.
This will be the game killer for me if it isn't brought back to some reasonable level of gameplay soon.
This is not just my machine either, everone in my squad tonight reported the same low frame rates, freezes and stutters. In addition, everybody is complaining about getting these freezes and stutters all day long. It is epidemic.
Is there any solution? Or, how long until this is fixed? If it's going to be awhile, I'll cancel until the repairs are made. Won't pay not to play.
-
goofy question... in your graphic detail area...are the "optimize objects" and optimize terrain" checked?
-
Still getting freezes when in the air with alot of planes around, 10/15.
Had to leave a couple of fights last night because it got so bad.
-
I didn't notice any help between 2.91 and 2.92.

P-4 2.2
gig of ram
Nvidia Mx 4000
My machine ran 60-70 FPS before updating to last version. I've loaded the patch and it helped a little,runs around 30 FPS now. Even then I get stutters, in a low multi-plane fight I seem to take a big hit from something on my graphics card. I've seen it drop to 4 FPS. To me I have a middle of the road performance PC.
This is becoming unflyable for me. I even tried to do GV a little. I was getting killed before the terrain would finish loading on my fe. Like I stated before,prior to the new version all was fine.
Was all this the result of the new version ?. Are the people experiencing problems all doing something wrong like using the same vid cards ?. If its a reasonable fix on my end I'd like to fix it. I've spent many hours the last few days reading BBS posts, trying shared remedies so that I can enjoy my "recreation".
I've tried literally every reasonable possible remedy posted on the boards.
I've read entirely to many posts in my search for this issue, hoping maybe somebody just posted it in the wrong BBS. Is it possible to roll back the Version ?. It seems a lot of us have the same issue.

I updated my mother board drivers and it seemed to stop the freezes I am holding 59-61 frame rates steady now. I just wanted to let you guys know what I did maybe it might help you .
