Ok I've read alot of threads on Exp 2 bugs, but......

[+Bongodriver 20]

I have been doing a little testing on my EF-2000 and noticed some bugs that don't seem to be repeated on any threads........I think, so has anyone else noticed any weirdness with some animations on 3rd party A/C? particularily jet nozzles.........although I can't say mine are totally screwed up I have noticed that they don't move through the full range of motion, it seems I get about 50% of the range before AB kicks in and they open again. I have made my Typhoon nozzles very complex with a combination of scale and rotation animations.

secondly flare and chaff effects seem a bit screwy....the smoke trails from flares seem to intertwine....so if I deploy a string of flares the smoke makes a sort of cross braced frame effect, and chaff seems a bit 'orange' like it is on fire?

there are also some weird things happening to shadow effects but I think I read something about similar problems on other threads.

ummmm........yah! it's mine.

[+Soulfreak 6,400]

Argh... sorry too fast! :lol:

 

Edit:

Maybe you could have a look at the data.ini´s of some Aircrafts which work

good with the latest patches????

Somebody remind me to put a special entry in the readme on this

[+Bongodriver 20]

Some screens......anybody seen anything like this?

 

[+Dave 2,319]

Never seen that before. I would give the latest version to Ant and see if it happens on his end. That's weird.

[+76.IAP-Blackbird 3,557]

HAve seen similar effects on a rig with a broken videocard.

Yes, would be the best way that some people test it too.

Looks very strange....

I was thinking the same thing....

Hope not, it's a brand new gtx470, would be the first case of Exp 2 breaking a gfx card, AFAIK Ant has the latest version so well see what he can find.......wondering if I have buggered up my install maybe? I have combo pack with patches to Dec C.

[+76.IAP-Blackbird 3,557]

normaly you can see this "green stripe effect" over the whole monitor, sometimes only at some 3D parts, but that`s very rare. Check your temp, maybe it`S to hot. Had this effect on my old rig the last summer I grilled my 8800 GT, than a good friend send me his 2 GTX 260, I opened the PC case and installed some fans. From this moment the case is still open and I clean it every week from dust and check it.

 

hope the drivers are not compatible and you card is ok!

[+Stary 2,427]

GFX old drivers+too high temperature would be my guess, check your GPU temps with realtemp or the like. And don't stress it

[+Bongodriver 20]

I'm 99.9% certain the gfx card is ok, the drivers are current and I have stress tested it to the limit with benchmarks, the green stripe effect only shows up in flashes when the view is rotated around the A/C it's not a constant thing, I can hear the fan on the card working at a moderate pace so it's not cooking, the FPS is smoother than my pickup lines, other very GFX intensive games cause no ill effects and run very smooth.

[+EricJ 4,092]

Yeah I get the same results, seems aircraft irrespective on my rig too

[JediMaster 451]

Are the people seeing this all running nvidia cards or do ATI people see it too?

 

I'm thinking it's some glitch in a shader code that the video drivers are freaking out on. Whether the fault is more drivers or the game I couldn't say.

[+Stary 2,427]

might be also Dx version related, IIRC I ad few artifacts first time when SF2I came, due to outdated Dx10. Green afterburners flashing among other things. Hope this helps

[+Sundowner 4,713]

Hmmmm, nozzel animation does seem messed up, cant replicate the other issues tho.

 

ATI 4890 1Gb.

[+EricJ 4,092]

NVIDIA GT 330M I haz.
