Graphic problems and crashes - Page 2

Hello Magnum,

only play "Dangerous Waters" two other games (flight sims) at the moment, but seldomly: "Over Flanders Fields" and "Rise of Flight", both aviation WW1 sims. But have only played "OFF" since, and it runs as fluently as ever. Will try out DW and RoF.

I have some serious stuttering in RoF since i changed to Win 7 32 bit, from Win XP - on the same machine ! My PC had a better performance with XP, with the same hardware configuration !

I will try this with RoF as well, maybe try to open the "Rof.exe" file with the FF explorer, and see whether the switch is set to > 2 Gb there. Maybe there is a performance gain in RoF now that i entered the string into the command line. Will test this and report back here.
(See post #1 for my hardware configuration)

Greetings,
Catfish

P.S. No crashes with other software experienced, videos run perfectly (i just used the PC for watching some TV repetitions, smooth as ever)
P.P.S. There are some bugs video memory-wise and restrictions that strangle hardware performance in Win 7, i am really astonished that so few people know, or experienced this.

Hi Catfish

With the "Range and AOB Finder" or " TDC Checker", you should not leave them running.
They are both on a loop (waiting for the next button to be clicked) and if you click next when not aiming at a ship in your scope it could crash so please close if you are not checking something.

You should click follow target before using to prevent this and to ensure the script is checking the correct ship.

You might have noticed that at time when you click "follow tagert" that the scope jumps to a target you had been lock on too. This is the same with the TDC checker etc. Clicking "follow target" will ensure you are testing the correct ship.

Yes stop or pause the script.
You can add a hotkey to run it and stop it. (see TDW tutorial for auto hotkeys)

Both were never ment to be used as a mod. The TDC checker was for a tutorial, but some people asked for it as a stand alone to check TDC setting as they were learning the process. I will update the thread to inform users to stop script whwn not using the TDC.

The range and aob finder was for testing scopes using the RAOBF.

Both of these should work ok but they do require a locked target or a target in the scopes. I am not sure what will happen if you ask it to check range if there is no ship to check. It should just skip the commands but I have not tested.

I will test now and see what happens.
