DocW 0 Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) Hi, watching the preview for the next phase to come (wow, wow and wow!) made me install OFF again and buying HitR. I am now trying to play it in earnest. However, in a campaign I experience a sudden return to the flight menu (the one before the briefing room) and my flight is usually not recognized. It seems to turn up occasionally, since I almost managed to finish one flight and the crash came close to my touchdown, thereafter my flight time was recognized. I really like OFF and try hard to make some progress, but this one is a spoiler. I did a fresh install, I even bought the UBI soft CFS 3 version just to be sure to have the right 3.1. I run Win 7 64 bit, Program in Admin mode. I did a web search on this, but found no obvious culprit. TIA for any help, Michael.

I patched off with the superpatch and the minipatch and i patched hitr with the one patch (1.47 i think) michael Unfortunately I'm only able to help in a limited capacity due to a lack of the technical knowledge that some OFFers have. I'm sure you did but I have to ask.....did you run CFS briefly? The tech guys here are rather like London Buses, you don't see one for a while then 3 come along at once. Be patient and help will eventually arrive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Polovski 460 Posted January 7, 2012 Run CFS3Config and set up your graphics sliders. See FAQ. http://www.overflandersfields.com/FAQ.htm#Installation_and_settings'>http://www.overflandersfields.com/FAQ.htm#Installation_and_settings Try setting slider of terrain and scenery 1 or 2 less each initially to test. If that doesn't work : CFS3 dropping back to the OFF Manager is due to memory glitch or CPU overheat usually. Knocking your terrain and scenery slider back may help OR see http://www.overflandersfields.com/FAQ.htm this has troubleshooting tips (Q.25 especially).
