Tommy2Fast 6 Posted March 20, 2018 HI people. have a problem: 80% of the time when i give orders over the coms (to the AI planes) the game freezes.. Anybody know what might the problem? -Tommy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Menrva 4,200 Posted March 20, 2018 Does it happen with stock or custom aircraft? AFAIK there is a "bug" where orders given to custom, user-flyable heavy bombers can cause a crash to desktop. SF2 was not intended to be used to fly with heavy bombers, so I always leave those to the AI. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tommy2Fast 6 Posted March 20, 2018 Both stock and customs. and not only the bomber. some orders are fine, but others ,like "return too base" ,makes the game freeze. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Menrva 4,200 Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) That's strange. So I suppose you are using a modded folder. If so, you might have files with the .ini extension inside the Flight folder. Try to remove them and report back. The most probable to cause the issue, if present in your Flight folder, could be COMMDATA.ini, FLIGHTENGINE.ini and FORMATION.ini. Maybe one of them is the culprit. Some mods are older and use outdated .ini files not updated to later standards, hence why you might have problems. But first, are you to the latest patch level, July 2013? For other game versions, I can't be sure about what might be the reason. What I said above should make sense though.

Tommy2Fast 6 Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) Thanx ill try, I dont have a COMMDATA.ini.. can that be the problem? It`s often when a lot is happening in the game (it freezes) AA-guns, enemy planes ect ect.. OK.. I belive its the FORMATION.ini.. (I tried another FORMATION.ini and it worked fine) but it messed up the coms. The coms menu tells me that i have more planes then I have.

When it's "missing" from your mod folder, you'll be using the original files of the game, which are compressed in .CAT archives. This is why I suggested you to remove any custom .ini files from your Flight folder, because they are being used instead of the original ones. You'd better remove the FORMATION.ini file. There is no real need of using custom ones. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
