Disappearing Aircraft

[FS~Lewis]

Big thanks for the detailed response zapatista....~S~..

I am writing this before I have read the link that you posted....

The problem I get is that aircraft go through a disappearing 'zone' as they outrun me or I catch them up....For instance as I close in I will first spot the aircraft (enemy or friendly) and as I approach they suddenly vanish ...and then as I get closer I will see the same aircraft suddenly appear..I have tested this with my wingmate and flown a headon which I experienced this phenomenon as we closed...but he didn't...as we closed at something in the region of 3-400 mph his aircraft vanished for a period of 2-3 seconds....so that gives an idea of just how large this window of invisibility is.....I don't get it if the aircraft I am following turns in this 'zone' giving me the profile so I guess it is a matter of pixel amount viewable through this problem area.

Having said that I have decided to try and live with this problem for the time being....Its a frustrating problem even trying to keep with my wingman but the fact that I am new to TrackIR and full real servers posses other problems at the moment which I am enjoying learning to overcome.
