Also see below for important statement regarding stability

[+Winder]

If you are having stability issues - strange mission outcomes or even variable AI/DM experiences please make sure that you are using a legitimate MS CFS3 V3.1 exe and install.

 

There are cracked 'no cd' exe's out there alas and I can say OFF DOES NOT AND CANNOT WORK PROPERLY with ANY hacked exes, moreover most of them are V3.0 and this is an even more obvious problem.

 

CFS3 is cheap - buy it!

 

UBISoft has a DVD version for sale that runs without a CD in the drive.

And I must add this is not a sales pitch for MS:

 

 

 

******* OFF WILL NOT WORK WITH ILLEGITIMATE CFS3 EXEs. **********

OFF HitR does demand more GPU memory - if you experience any graphics issues please reduce either your scenery slider one notch or goto workshops and if you can select a lower Ground Object Density... reduce by one....

 

 

Other Known issues:

 

1) Certain craft will not be flyable on line in MP they are:

 

Nieuport N24 Lewis

Nieuport N24 Bis Lewis

Sopwith Strutter B1

Nieuport 17 Lewis

 

This is due to a craft name length limitation with CFS3 MP - will look into a solution in the future.

2) Hang error when launching mission when using French pilot in Esc Laf (during the period it is named "Esc Américaine")

Between April - Nov 1916.

 

Looks like it is caused by the Esc Laf using a special character on the letter e.

 

So for the moment avoid the Esc Laf between the dates of April 1916 - Nov 1916 until we can investigate a solution

 

- thanks
