Bullits not hitting aircraft..
« on: May 23, 2008, 10:58:54 AM »
jokes aside..

im having a issue where I fire at an aircraft, and a significant portion of my rounds seem to just travel through the aircraft.. no hit sprites, no damage..

tested it offline on the drones.

someone suggested turning my FR from unlimited to 60, but if i do that I get an odd issue where intermittantly the game will freeze for several seconds at a time, ill stil hear sound but but its repeating itself over and over, then after 6 sec or so, its back.

Geforce 8800GT OC

Make sure Vsync is turned on (forced on in Nvidia Control Panel).

Most of the people you meet in life are like slinkies. Pretty much useless, but still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

No, that means he told Aces High to limit his FR to 60. Not related at all.

vsync has always been forced on, FR stuck at 60 (monitor refresh)  if i turn Vsync off i get between 200 and 300 fps depending on conditons, but it causes horrible tearing (use trackIR) so ive ALWAYS had vsync forced on.

but before (before major system upgrade) I always had my FR set at "unlimited" in game, with no ill effects.
