Well, it started out straightforward. Go bomb a bridge. I'm still 22 miles from the target.... And this was at a slow point in the action.

Somedays you eat the bear. Other days, the bear eats you.

Is anyone else having issues with the latest Nvidia updated drivers causing SF2 to stall out at 80% most of the time, and when it eventually loads, only last for approximately 10-20 seconds before CTD? I'm using an Nvidia 4060TI at 3440x1440 resolution, and this happens with any a/c, on any terrain. The only change from yesterday to today, was the newest drivers. Rolling back to the last set of drivers didn't solve the problem either, so whatever it is, I am at a loss. But only in SF2. ODS is unaffected.

BTDT. All my installs are running on the dedicated GPU, and this issue only affects 1 of them. It's not a showstopper; just annoying, and after much checking, I'm pretty sure it's a driver issue. If the next update doesn't resolve the problem, I'll go from there.

Works in ODS30AE Does NOT do this for any other install. SF2E still runs stretched out on a curved monitor, but no issues other than that.. SF2I runs just fine, as does SF2V. IF I can get it to 80% in NA, CRASH. IF it loads completely, 10 seconds later, sound stutters, and CRASH. Of course, NA was the install I was using to run my mods on, as it was the best suited for it. Until 5 days ago, anyway. I'm still trying to figure it out, but so far, zero luck.

To be even more specific, SF2NA is the one giving me fits. And no, ODS30AE is unaffected. I'm still looking for a culprit, and it doesn't appear anyone else is seeing this, so it must be something on my end.

Wingman did a go-around and landed a few minutes later..

You mean, I had it wrong???????

I would. Don't look so surprised. You KNEW I was going to do this.

"I'm too old for this $h*t"

Oh, I know that. But it was meat on the table....... I had the shot.mp4

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess you weren't burdened by an over-abundance of schooling, then? Although I do like it.

Ah Yes!!!! A man who understood the assignment...

Heavy rain, deepening dusk, moving deck...perfect weather for a carrier trap.

My escorts were an 8-ship of USN F-4's who were supposed to do.....something. All they did was rile up the locals, and by the time we got there, they were well & truly pissed.
