Constructive explanation of issues

[klem]

I have noticed that with mp_dotrange showing say 14km or even 25km I don't see a dot until it suddenly and very obviously pops up at around 8km (according to the map icons and grid size). It appears to be several pixels, perhaps 4 or more?

They just as suddenly disappear, presumably as they move away, but again it is very sudden and obvious. On one or two servers I have seen the dots suddenly change from the very obvious black dot to a very (and I mean very) faint grey dot of perhaps one pixel.

So the ranging and rendering of the dots seems to be inadequate and inconsistent. Its hard to say if the "8km" dot is the right size, it may be a little too large, but once the whole business is sorted out it will be easier to make sense of it.

My settings are attached.

Rig is:
ASUS Sabertooth mobo
i7 950 @ 4GHz
6Gb DDR3 RAM
EVGA GTX570 GPU
850W PSU
Coolermaster HAF912+ case
Samsung 22" 226BW @ 1680 x 1050
X52 HOTAS
X45 miscellaneous controls

See previous post for my settings etc.

I also posted this on a regular thread but I think it belongs here:

I have created a dogfight mission with a Weather Object set as overcast at 300m, Hurricanes at Hawkinge, static heinkels and stukas across the channel at Saint-Inglevert and a few 109s patrolling their area. I have set the density etc properties of the weather as low as they will go (the sliders).

Problem: When friends join me (I'm running the server on my playing PC) they do not get the weather - just clear skies - while I am flying in the overcast.

Any ideas why? Is this part of 'the weather is porked' or could it be something to do with settings?

If it means anything, while I see the blue ground targets on my map right from the start, my friends don't until they get near the French coast and while I can see the ground targets dots from miles away - even through cloud (!) - my friends don't until they are close.

hello all,

All in all, the game runs fairly smooth for me, but i did notice 2 annoying bugs that i didnt see listed here in the forum (but i guess they are mentioned here somewhere).
1. the mirror in the spit is magnifying - i can see pixelated view of the ocean or whatever behind me.
2. when i hit an enemy plane, the game suffer from a micro stutter at the moment of impact.

version is the latest official, settings are around med-high, except for shadows @ low.

system details:
quad e6600@2.4
GTX 560 TI
6 GB DDR2 RAM
22" monitor

Objects with no collision detection. You can fly through radar towers, etc.

Is there a new one? I thought BETA patch 14413 from May 4 is the newest?

Thanks

I've notice that it only happens on my system when I over shoot the runway on take off. So, if I get airborne before the end of the runway, the sound of tumbling wheels stops once they leave the ground, but for some reason, if I continue my ground roll past the end of the runway then the tumbling sounds does not stop once airborne.

This also happens if I take off "cross field".

Hope this helps,

I get the sound on take off, unless I "bump" the wheels on the runway an extra time, then it goes away.

hi all. S!
i too have a few issues with the game,1 when i go to multiplayer either as a host or a client. the moment i hit fly i get launcher.exe has stopped responding. that happens alot. i have set compatibilty and run as admin to help but no go. 2 if i host a game i pick mission i want and it loads a default one so i go to missions and select say a dogfight mission the game freezes like its loading the new 1 and loads the default 1 again. graphically i aint having to many problems i have had to turn them down to med and high. even though it says im getting 50+ fps it stutters real badly. i found setting the game to windowed then dragging the screen size bigger reduces stutter alot though. can this only be due to the buildings though?. because even on max graphics when i go to the sea i hit 90/100 fps average.
ow 1 thing u might want to know about. i crashed my plane my engine completly fell out and was laying up the runway. my plane nosed over so i was leaning forward.i was still hearing the engine and was able to throttle up and drive my plane forward. and as i said my engine was completely missing. im not worried about these problems oleg and his crew come through with il2 and they will come through with this too. any more issues and ile come back and report them here.
