Testing cv1
Still cannot see player ID when transmitting? Can anyone with VR see the ID? Maybe it's my settings but I can't find it. HiTech if this is a low priority bug or if it is supposed to be this way, let me know and I will quit listing it.

I found a new (to me anyway) VR bug today. I have been flying P38L and did not see it there. I tried a P51D and when I am in the cockpit in VR (cv1) if I look up at around 20 to 30 deg up the canopy frame (and clipboard if it's up) starts to move with my head as I continue to look up further. It only does this in some airplanes. I tried the p51, p47 and la7 which all had the problem. Playing around it appeared to be connected as to how close the head is to the back rest. If I leaned up it didn't happen but hard to be sure? To duplicate sit in p51 center the headset and start looking up.

I see that too. The headset has more head movement than the game and the cockpit moves instead of stopping you.

Big dot, render to small dot issue...again. Seems the large dots are disappearing when they render again.
I've got vid up if you would like to see it....staring right at the large dot...and then (zoomed in) bink they are gone...only to appear at icon range again.
Numerous people discussing this on squad channel.
Also appears some people have the no blackout bug without control lock up (is that a politically correct enough way to put it?)...some pretty impossible toejame observed tonight.

If you got a video card crash error message that says your video card stopped working, that's a video card issue and not the game.

Both the TE and the uploader build the terrain without issues now on my FE.
Then I saw you've really improved the wire frame function for land too. Very nice.
Also, I didn't find any sink holes along the beach after the conversion and beach brush application which saved a lot tweaking compared with the past. I don't know for sure but it looks like you've made improvement in that area too.
Looking good from my end so far. I look forward to testing textures in a week or so.

Game freezes if I select Achievements on clipboard. CTL-ALT-DEL to get to task manager but the game crashes.
Also, I didn't notice this before but the runways of medium and large air fields have as much glare as a natural metal aircraft does, or very nearly so. I'm not sure what material those runways are supposed to be made from but it doesn't seem right to me that there would be that much glare.

Part of the program helps you get out of stuck positions by sliding your GV around.
Make sure you have up to date video drivers.
Title: Graphical Bugs
Post by: N95KF on September 10, 2016, 12:32:46 PM
Good afternoon everyone,
I love the new AH3. So much that it was hard to revert back to AH2 last night for FSO. Hopefully everyone will be upgrading their PC's to a degree and jumping on board soon. Anyway, I wanted to raise a few bugs/glitches/issues in the game that I noticed. Game play-wise, I have absolutely no complaints yet (so far). I did notice several graphical issues in the game that I will list:
1) High altitude sky texture disappears/reverts to low-resolution.
When you fly up to a certain altitude, I think its somewhere over 20k, there is a 100-foot section of altitude which if you are within, you will notice the sky texture kind of breaks. You notice a pale blue sky with a hard defined lines separating it from the lower half of the sky and horizon. It then reverts back to the way it normally looks once you climb/dive above/below that 100-foot altitude level.
2) Visibility layers need fixing
The visibility or simulated fog layers need fixing. At certain altitudes you can see a definitive cutoff on the side of a mountain where a visibility layer ends. FSX had this problem too before 3rd party texture software fixed it. If you are at 20k, and a low-visibility layer cuts off at 18k, you will see a very noticeable ugly line appear on the horizon, or alongside the mountain. Anything below that line looks gray.
2) Dawn/Dusk/Night Transition
a. A few things seem broken around sunrise/sun down. Night time does not appear gradual, it just all of a sudden turns pitch black during a sunset.
b. There is no horizon fading over the water, or sense of decreased visibility on the horizon around this time. You see a very definitive, aliased line separating the rising moon graphic from the water. Other than that, the transition periods look fantastic!
3) The shimmering of particles and objects on the ground
a.For some reason, even with AA enabled both in-game AND 8x on nVidia control panel, objects, mostly trees, seem to be shimmering on the ground. Certain lines still appear aliased such as (cockpit lines, runway outline)
b.There is also another strange graphical issue I noticed. With HDR Light Bloom enabled within the game settings, I see a very faint, yet noticeable grid line pattern over areas that are blooming (sun, metallic wing surface shining, etc.) It looks like a very faint white screen door
Well, that's all I can think of. The shimmering is the only annoying part of all this and I hope that HTC can fix the textures somehow, or update the graphical code to reduce that somehow (whatever you computer guys do). Thanks all! Replies MUCH appreciated!!

Seems tank cannon shells detonate in what appears feet from palm tree fronds.
The trees shedding leaves when hit with .30/.50 cal is cool, but shouldn't the bullets continue on their path after hitting leaves ? 20 round burst and no tracers/bullets seemed to exit the foilage. I can attest even an M16 rock-n-roll burst thru jungle foilage may deflect or stop a few rounds, but not the entire magazine, much less a ma-deuce.
If auto-ack can fire through foilage, why can't the tanks return fire go through the same area ?

B17 - Bomber Sight
I noticed when in bomber sight and going over the clouds that the clouds "flip" or spin. This is likely due to the camera tracking / angles similar when in external view mode.
Skins - Skins are still changing on drone planes in particular when changing views in external F3 mode. If I look left / right at angles the skins flip then revert back.
Bombsight - The bomsight on not just B17's but all bombers appear to be WAY TO ZOOMED IN. Previously when at reasonable / high altitudes you could get a good view off in the distance for target lineup but now you almost have to be over top of the target and make quick adjustments to bomb. I'm running a 3 screen setup (3840 x 1024) but it looks like that happens in single screen as well. Can we get the bombsights zoomed out a little???

SFMA online:
1. I've noticed when I'm in a GV near a tree or bushes, that I lose the plane icon flying near me. The icon reappears after the plane passes. It seems like there is an invisible bubble around the foliage that doesn't block the plane image, but blocks the icon.
2. I experienced 4 or 5 screen freezes yesterday after the patch. I was running all the sliders to the left (minimum) and reflections and shadows turned off. I wasn't really having that much of an issue before. I have 12GB of system memory and run a NVIDIA GTX780ti video card.

Most of this is minor stuff, some of which I'm sure has been reported. I didn't have much time to mess around. Overall this is stunning - the skydome makes a huge difference in the look of the game.
- The field gun selection in the hangar for some fields is upside down. Seems like the big fields mainly, but I didn't go into too much detail. But every time I tried to use a gun on a big field in the arena the gun selector was upside down.
- Some planes don't seem to have much room for adjustment in head position - Fw and F4U are the two I noticed right away - your face is right in the glass almost and you can't move back much at all.
- In order to keep 60fps I had to turn off shadows and reflections (reflections only cost 1-2 fps, actually, shadows was the big eater-of-frames). But that makes the interior of the hanger a real mess. The specularity you have set on the planes assumes there's a shadow and reflection - same with the area of the floor which shows time-of-flight for fuel load. Both of these get washed out with those gfx features disabled. I'm sure you'll optimize shadows before release, but its worth noting this side-effect.
- I like the new HUD, but why not allow us to put stuff in the top-left corner as well. With the new head positions I can't see ammo or compass on half the planes I like to fly anymore. But if these could be in the top-left corner of the HUD it'd be cool.
- The game starts in Windowed mode - which on my Win-10 box yields a white-screen until I alt-return. It may cut down on your customer support hassles to have the desktop icon launch in a different mode.
My only real concern for this is the same concern I have had for AH2 (and you can tell me to shove it and I won't mind): this is the best combat flight sim on the market, but it seems like the majority of people are in tanks or trying to kill tanks. There are other tank simulators out there, there isn't another combat flight sim out there that can touch AH. It seems like a shame to see 120 people in the arena and there's hardly any friendly or enemy bars anywhere on the map.

As this is still pre-release, i suspect that you will start finding more and more air fights as it gets closer to release and even once it is released.
Also, regarding your fps, make sure the environment mapping slider is set to none.

While Playing in VR dx11 mode using HTC-Vive latest release on vive and AH3.
My desktop resolution is 3840x2160 4k (Ge980ti 6gbvram and a 43" westinghouse we42uc4200). It runs great in DX9 mode. When I start the game in DX11 vr mode, in the desktop (not the headset) the game is basically 90% offscreen and only the bottom few inches or so of the game is visible in the main desktop. Everything runs perfectly fine in VR mode, (Fantastically really) but I have to take off my headset and move the mouse all the way up to the top of the screen so it is actually in the game in the desktop before the cursor becomes visible in my headset and I can select things.
No doubt this is a function of my desktop resolution but its not a problem I experience in any other vr game. It also means that if I'm showing someone AH3 in vr I can not see what they are seeing in the headset on the desktop. BTW this has been a problem in every beta release, never thought to mention it till now because its has never been this bad. In past betas I could see half the screen on my desktop. Just an FYI...

For some reason the CraterMA map is still giving me much worse frame rates than any of the others. Settings that consistently give me ~50 fps on any other map I've seen give me around 30-35 fps in CraterMA. In busy fights with ack flying it goes as low as 25 fps at which point the game is nearly unplayable. The weird thing is that turning off detail and moving all the sliders all the way left has almost no effect (except the Environment map sides per frame or whatever, that's always at 0). I was able to get 50 fps by setting textures to 512k and leaving all detail off. Is anyone else having problems just with this map?

Head movement should be the same as AH2 but the default FOV was reduced from 106 to 80 so the appearance is different. The 80 FOV is also why the default view is tilted down to show more instruments, and centers on the gunsight when you zoom.

Yeah. I want to juggle the env.map and shadow settings and see where the sweep spot is.
AH2 seems to be a mostly tank-driven game already. I played for a while a couple months ago and that's what I saw: as many people in GV's as anything else, and half the fighters were in A2G roles. Anyone in the air responded to GV's approaching a base. Maybe this is the financial model that HTC needs to sustain the business. I don't know. But all the competing products are lame by comparison in terms of simulating the "fighter/bomber pilot experience". All eye candy and "gee whiz, I can fly in chase view, wheee, I'm good at flight sims!"
This game was plenty fun before all these GV's everyplace. There simply isn't enough vulching going on. ;-)

I'm talking about the head position origin. Point-of-view coordinate.
Try the F4U-1A. The furthest back you can set your viewpoint lets you just barely see the top of the gauges. An extra 26 degrees that close to the dash won't improve things much. You can shift the viewpoint forward til your chin is literally on top of the gun sight. That doesn't seem right. That's not a FoV issue - it actually feels like the "back" limit should be the "front limit" because that's the furthest I remember being able to push the viewpoint ahead in the Hawg.

Sounds like you reset the default view so it's not tilted down to see the instruments. Set FOV to 106 and it will look like AH2.

I even cleared out the plane defaults - so it wasn't anything I did per se. But you're right. 106 deg fixes it. That's gonna throw other people coming back to the game too.

Here's a screenshot of the text alignment bug in VR. If the text block is raised to center it is even. If you move it up then the middle line skews one way and if you move it down it skews the other way as shown in the pic.

Clearing the defaults is what reset the view so you don't see the instruments at 80 FOV. The default views are all optimized for 80 so new players don't have to set the views themselves. When they look back they see more than the headrest. Old players coming back can easily set the FOV to their old preference.

Most of this is minor stuff, some of which I'm sure has been reported. I didn't have much time to mess around. Overall this is stunning - the skydome makes a huge difference in the look of the game.
- The field gun selection in the hangar for some fields is upside down. Seems like the big fields mainly, but I didn't go into too much detail. But every time I tried to use a gun on a big field in the arena the gun selector was upside down.
- Some planes don't seem to have much room for adjustment in head position - Fw and F4U are the two I noticed right away - your face is right in the glass almost and you can't move back much at all.
- In order to keep 60fps I had to turn off shadows and reflections (reflections only cost 1-2 fps, actually, shadows was the big eater-of-frames). But that makes the interior of the hanger a real mess. The specularity you have set on the planes assumes there's a shadow and reflection - same with the area of the floor which shows time-of-flight for fuel load. Both of these get washed out with those gfx features disabled. I'm sure you'll optimize shadows before release, but its worth noting this side-effect.
- I like the new HUD, but why not allow us to put stuff in the top-left corner as well. With the new head positions I can't see ammo or compass on half the planes I like to fly anymore. But if these could be in the top-left corner of the HUD it'd be cool.
- The game starts in Windowed mode - which on my Win-10 box yields a white-screen until I alt-return. It may cut down on your customer support hassles to have the desktop icon launch in a different mode.
My only real concern for this is the same concern I have had for AH2 (and you can tell me to shove it and I won't mind): this is the best combat flight sim on the market, but it seems like the majority of people are in tanks or trying to kill tanks. There are other tank simulators out there, there isn't another combat flight sim out there that can touch AH. It seems like a shame to see 120 people in the arena and there's hardly any friendly or enemy bars anywhere on the map.
-DoK
DoK I had same problem with gunsite to close. Try changing your FOV setting selection graphics on FIRST clipboard before entering the game. The second clipboard allows you to select arena and adjust more graphic details.
DUH just noticed previous posts. Disregard.

Still no time to thoroughly test the arena tables but Jaeger and I did a bit tonight. Preliminary findings for arena tables: The default tables must be loaded before you can create a new table. No joy if an existing table loads with the terrain or you manually load one. The feedback dialogs tell you a new table couldn't be created when it did create a table, and in another instance, a table couldn't be deleted when in fact, jaeger deleted the table.

OK. I guess. Still sounds like if you're coming back to the game and it imports your old pref's you'll have this issue. But as long as it's written up someplace experienced players will figure it out soon enough.
Again ... these are minor nits ... but the more seamless it is for people coming back the better.

Any chance of an option to disable just tree shadows? The big tree FPS hit is partly from that.
Finally sorted out resetting the head position files - now I see what you mean. The IL2 I think is still off. Even with everything cleared out and reset to 80deg it's not showing gauges.

A really weird thing happened with two sets of bombers. Killed one in the high set of B-17s, then dropped down to get the lower He111s. The weird part is that one of the drones in formation with the He111s was a B-17. Ended up killing the B-17 drone while the lead bomber was thousands of feet above. :rolleyes:

There's a bug in mouse view. It just jiggles instead of moving until I hit F7 then it works normally. This is with both H and Shift H.
Maybe related, F8 pan mode still doesn't work with the hat or keypad. You can pan with F7 but it snaps back to the forward view.

Some, not all buildings can grab your GV like a tree and the game will slide your tank in and out of the building like you are on ice skates till you ditch. Got called a cheater last night for killing a few tanks while sliding in and out of some buildings, ended up ditching to stop the slide as nothing I tried worked to free the tank.

I noticed the same thing on the 109 once I turned shadows on. There were what looked like strobing tessellation artifacts along the canopy supports as the shadow moved across it. It's only from certain angles, but it's repeatable. I never saw that when I had shadows off.

I mentioned that many many patches ago. I think it might be a feature of the SpeedTree trees, i.e. a way to limit you seeing the edge on view of what is actually a flat polygon with texture. It tries to rotate the branches so they always appear broadside instead of edge on.

When zooming in at altitude, parts of the coastal water was replaced with sky texture. Shows both internal as well as internal (bombsight). See screenshots.
Additional problem visible on picture "texture": There is a port located on that screenshot, but unlike other bases it was actually not showing up. As you can see, theres only that prominent coastline to, but no installations visible. They only showed up when being right over the base, thus too late for bombing. Did not have this problem with the factories which I was later heading to. Map: SFMA, southern port. Detail range at default.

I found a new (to me anyway) VR bug today. I have been flying P38L and did not see it there. I tried a P51D and when I am in the cockpit in VR (cv1) if I look up at around 20 to 30 deg up the canopy frame (and clipboard if it's up) starts to move with my head as I continue to look up further. It only does this in some airplanes. I tried the p51, p47 and la7 which all had the problem. Playing around it appeared to be connected as to how close the head is to the back rest. If I leaned up it didn't happen but hard to be sure? To duplicate sit in p51 center the headset and start looking up.

I believe you are just seeing your head not being able to move but still rotating? Is it rotating with your head or only translating with your head?

I can't tell if it's rotation or translation. In the p51d as you move your head to look up, the front cockpit frame moves up also. In addition, I didn't think I had any issues with the p38, but if I move my head to the side, when it hits the canopy the canopy/airplane moves with my head as I continue to move to the side. Like when you are trying to look around the nose. I guess the two could be related if I am hitting the top of the canopy with my head but I have no way to tell. I did try lowering my self but that didn't stop it.
If you can't duplicate it, I will go in today to see if I can notice anything else that would help.
Edit: I just tried again and I think the it is translation as the whole aircraft moves. Also you can stick you head outside the canopy but even then you reach a point where the aircraft starts to move with your head.

Vox Bugs / Issues:
I've seen a number of comments with people having problems with Vox. I've also been informed by squaddies that I am having similar issues.
I've logged on and set the vox to tune myself and tested it. At some times during the day it sounds crystal clear and then when doing the same thing later it sounds like I'm in the bottom of a well / inside a tin can and difficult to hear me clearly. I've tried the .resetv command for all of the sound options to no avail. I've also verified I have no issues on my end as when the problem is happening I run Ventrilo in the background and it's crystal clear on there.
I also note that when I run AHIII in offline mode and tune vox to SERVER I also hear myself like I'm in a tin can.
I'm using a Logitech USB / Microphone headset and wondering if this may be the problem as I've heard others comment on the same?
Any ideas on this HiTech?

DOH!!! :bhead :bhead :bhead
I believe I found the problem. Looks like even though AHIII was selected to use my Logitech USB Headset microphone in the game it was actually using the default microphone from Windows (which was setup to be my webcamera mic). Once I made the default Windows microphone my headset mic all sounds good now.
Hopefully this helps others having issues with Vox.

Are you experiencing low frame rates at the time? I was flying with my boy awhile ago, and he was on my old desktop an I was in the brand new one (naturally). Any way, he was seeing me stutter and jump but his FPS had dropped from 55 to 21, were down low in the trees (Yes, trying to keep him from killing me). When we got to the port he was really complaining about it( 200 on my 6) as he couldn't hit me, I was stuttering so much. I got him to over shoot, but then I noticed he was stuttering and jumping around. Got to looking and my FPS had dropped from steady 60, every where else, to a 32 FPS. My FPS always take that hit at a port, maybe just a lot for graphics card to render, but not sure

SFMA2016 offline:
I was checking the 2 flak towers in the City Industrial Center.
1. The north flak tower has 4 auto flak guns (gna) and they can be destroyed with the destroy objects option in arena set up. (they appear normal)
2. The south flak tower has 4 armored auto guns (gna) and 11 hard auto guns (gnh) which I could destroy in arena set up, but the 12th hard auto guns is labeled as a train object (trn000). When I attempted to destroy the (trn000) gun in the arena set up, I got booted to desktop and the game closed. I believe it's the same type of flak tower you fixed at the fuel refinery that had the same problem. I tried several times to use the destroy objects option in arena set up to kill the (trn000) gun and was booted every time with the game closing also.
3. I found no other abnormalities with all of the other flak towers.

I went forward, then reverse, forward, reverse, and after about 10 or so movements back and forth I got out and did not have to ditch. Scotty offered to bring me a tow rope, but I declined.

What is the error message you're getting? Are you getting a error message that your video card GPU crashed and has restarted?

I had the same problem as Randy. My error said something about a kernel. I'll try to remember to screen shoot it next time.

Same as everyone else. A Kernel message after the screen goes black and/or game crashes. I even did a full re-install of drivers and game. Same thing. Also Im noticing a fps drop in 5 so Im suspecting the patch is causing a leak in GTX cards at least. Theres no way this is NVIdea related, not with all of us suddenly experiencing it with a new patch.

Found this building 3ft floating above ground on my terrain while setting down tank ambushes around TT. Went offline with CraterMA to locate it and below are the psave coordinates. I'm amazed all the guys running around TT and no one saw this. ;)

It's been like that for many many patches; I reported it long ago. (Translation: Me Me!! I saw it already... neener neener neener.)

Some random bugs:
SFMA2016: spawned M3 from A9 South, hit a tree, started to slide sideways (like it does), suddenly screen went almost entirely black but it wasn't a typical CTD and the radio box was visible, typed .ef and was returned not to A9 tower but to A2.
Only hear the wind environmental sound in my right ear, independent of which direction I'm looking.
Sun reflecting on water: should start only after the sun actually rises above the horizon. Currently it starts before and instead of a triangle or a parallelogram it starts as an X. Also, my gut feeling is that it should quit showing sooner as the sun rises, i.e. at a lower sun angle. At very low sun angles the reflection is a long bar because the narrow range of incidence angles caused by the water swells covers the whole distance. When the sun is higher the narrow angle only covers a short actual distance.
Not a bug per se but maybe a wish: it is possible to drive through some foliage, like the small bush, bamboo, the short bush like tree, etc. but you can't shoot through them. This has adverse game play impacts: a tank can hide behind a bush or bamboo with it's barrel sticking out and it can shoot you, but you can't return fire without the foliage stopping the round. Perhaps foliage that allows driving through should also allow tank and other rounds through?

I ran into the no vox issue tonight in the melee arena. I tried resetv, restarting the game, cycling the audio panels (Yamaha MG10XU and Behringer FCA 1616), but the thing that fixed it was a reboot. Then on the first sortie I was moving for maybe a minute before I lost connection. I had to close the process before the game would run again. The game put me back in flight as usual.

I was in a heavy 47 D40 over a CV when screen went blank...black. I had to alt-tab out and re-enter the game through the log in etc.
I entered the game where I was booted and luckily I had enough alt to not auger and sank the cruiser. I am using DX 11.

When I change from SPEAKER to HEADSET the sounds will not come back...pure silence. DOT. resetv has no effect. I have to exit completely out of the game and then come back,then voila SOUND!

Randy did you give it some time to test the new unstick feature? I've been stuck since it was introduced but, giving it time and wiggling the tank like being stuck in mud in real life, it finally slid out of the stuck.
I did. That is till Jinx found me. A different stuck than in trees or building.

The "Land 20 kill streak in a fighter" achievement isn't counting. After about than a dozen kills without a death it's still showing 0. The 15 kills version worked (got it 8/24) Had no such problem in AH II before.
Ok, this seems to be an AH III arena problem with landings when it comes to achievements. Landed kills in the Me 262, Me 163, Bf 109K in that arena and none of them counted in any "land kills" category. For all other ones it works (total kills, country kills and so on). That also explains why out of 368 total kills I allegedy landed only 155, which is way too low. Apparently all or at least most of those 155 'landed kills' had been made by me in AH2 arena.

Alt-Tab still sends AH into another dimension. I've been schooled in how to end it, then start it again, but it seems to me that you should be able to alt-tab back and forth, as in the olde days. Particularly if you're fussing with your TrackIR or similar device.

Tonight while sitting in a T34 on tank island the game froze. Also, although vert sync was not disabled the frame rate was displayed as 97 when it froze. Crtl-alt-del and cancel put me back in the frozen game. Had to exit using windows key and end AH3 in task manager. Got message that AH3 was not responding. I logged back in and was back in the tank as if I had discoed. After I was back in it ran for two hours with great FPS and graphics.

Just wanted to post this repeat bug. Using CH hotas system, very little keyboard interaction. Occasionally, I'll be dumped to the desktop, but the AHIII icon is in the bottom tool bar just as if I hit Alt-Tab. I click on the AH III icon and get right back into the game in flight (usually right in front of the plane I was furballing with!). Every time this has happened, I'm using game controls only, no keyboard. None of my controller buttons are mapped to Alt or Tab. Still love the new game! :cheers:

Reposting this, not sure you saw it.
SFMA2016 offline:
I was checking the 2 flak towers in the City Industrial Center.
1. The north flak tower has 4 auto flak guns (gna) and they can be destroyed with the destroy objects option in arena set up. (they appear normal)
2. The south flak tower has 4 armored auto guns (gna) and 11 hard auto guns (gnh) which I could destroy in arena set up, but the 12th hard auto guns is labeled as a train object (trn000). When I attempted to destroy the (trn000) gun in the arena set up, I got booted to desktop and the game closed. I believe it's the same type of flak tower you fixed at the fuel refinery that had the same problem. I tried several times to use the destroy objects option in arena set up to kill the (trn000) gun and was booted every time with the game closing also.
3. I found no other abnormalities with all of the other flak towers.
