malibu43 Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 See, I'm wondering if this can be used for jet engines...if so, I have an idea....:). FC JATO? Quote
+Gr.Viper Posted October 20, 2011 Author Posted October 20, 2011 I wonder, if we'll see TK's take on helicopters. Quote
+Florian Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 I wonder, if we'll see TK's take on helicopters. I have asked myself the same, when i read the ship list. But there is only one guy on earth who knows for sure... Quote
+ojcar Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 Well, I'm having a lot of stuttering since September patch. It seems to be equal with new patch.... Quote
Blade Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 It might not mean anything, but there a few new lines in the groundobjectlist.lst file.. I haven’t checked the patched game yet, but the AircraftList.lst included in the F-8E(FN) DLC also contains interesting things. Maybe a glimpse into the (not immediate) future…? Quote
+EricJ Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 (edited) My game is crashing like a mofo everytime I boot up SF2E. I've brought it up with TK on the TW boards but like me he's scratching his head on what the issue is. It's the NVIDIA chipset (mobile 330 GT Mobile with updated drivers) is what I'm using. Problem is Windows 7 (Which I'm thinking this is mainly the reason) switches to Basic color scheme everytime I load up Oct 11 SF2:E and therefore forces a crash or the game is so illegible it's only by reflex I can exit out. Is there a way to stop Windows from switching to Basic? Navigating the menus is like... well difficult. I've done what limited things I can do but this is very repeatable and yes, very annoying.

Is there a way to stop Windows from switching to Basic? Navigating the menus is like... well difficult. you mean the menu appears to be like 128x128 stretched to cover the screen?? I get that every now and then (about 1 in 10 startups) in SF2. Have you tried dropping it to basic prior to starting SF2? (i tend to drop mine to basic before gaming, and using anything that would require the hardware overlays ((recording console footage in HD)). Windows only drops it to Basic when it detects a program fault, or incompatibility with the Aero UI (perhaps your game is somehow now configured to run 16bit color?)

I'm running 32 bit (64-bit Windows) so still don't know why. I'll disable the AeroUI and see what happens. Quote
+JonathanRL Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 I wonder if this means F-14 game is close... And if so, how close. TK usually never tells when a game is to be released. I like that in him actually. Quote
+EricJ Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 No luck... how do you switch it to Basic Skatezilla? Quote
Murphy'S Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 from all this list only these ones are probably directly related to f-14 game A-6E A-6E_79 A-7E_74 A-7E_79 EA-6B F-4J_74 F-4N F-4S F-14A F-14A_77 RF-8G RF-8G_77 Yak-38 Tu-95K-22 Tu-95RT Tu-22KD Tu-22KPD Tu-22M2 Tu-22M3 Tu-22PD Tu-22RD Tu-16K-10-26 Tu-16K-26 Tu-16P Tu-16R Tu-16RM-1 and maybe this one A-4M the other ones are more likely to be DLC planes Quote
+EricJ Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 Disregard, got it working SkateZillaHD... Quote

Same thing happens here Eric, also Win7, so far I discovered being extremely pi$$ed and starting the game all over again like 10 freakin times in a row usually "cures it" Quote

+SkateZilla Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 (edited) No luck... how do you switch it to Basic Skatezilla? Start, Control panel, Personalization, Under Basic/Highcontrast Theme, choose windows 7 basic. MS Says that Aero is enabled based on WDDM, if its randomly cutting it on an off then its doing it because of the load on the GPU. or something along those lines. the only game I've had swithc me from Aero to Basic on its own was BattleField play for free. also: Right click on the SF shortcut, Properties, Compatibilty tab, then check Disable Visual themes and Disable Desktop composition Edited October 20, 2011 by SkateZilla Quote
+SkateZilla Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 Well like SkateZillaHD says, it happens on average 1 out of 10 startups so I don't concern myself about it. the low res menu only happens 1/10 times usually, and it usually happens when i have other things open i can see the general area where exit is, and it changes color, so i click it to exit the program.

+Wrench Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 anybody also notice that 'aftermarket' hangar screens no longer work?? -- on ANY 3rd pary add on aircraft, AIs made flyable?? Loading screens, however still do. jeez.... Quote

Loading screens, however still do. jeez.... Could be the switch to the new hangar screens fully implemented. Even Harriers now change their picture when you switch the skin. Actually, those hangar portraits must've been what boosted the volume of the latest series of patches. Quote
Guest Pfunk Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 Usually updates like these are precursors to something really big. Something tells me we're not far off. Quote
+Wrench Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 yah, the aircraft list ini thingy is quite impressive ...3 Oz Mirages, L,M,N model scooters, N & S phantoms, 3 Intruders (plus EA-6B), A model Crud, RF-8 crud, F-84F_56,, Thuds F & G, different model mig-15s (including FB version), The Bears (!!!), buncha new blinders.... definate possibilities there!
