Re: Screenshots

Right you are, SV. This is the best combat flight sim. If you did nothing but fly the superb models, it would be a delight. Doubt if there will ever be a better researched flight sim.

Re: NOW AVAILABLE! Battle of France for BOBII

Gentlemen, this is a magnificent addition. I nearly jumped out of my seat when my stick gave a strong jolt the first time I fired the new Spitfire incarnation's guns. ☆☆☆☆☆ Stars in the Michelin Guide for flight sims, and my favorite.

Re: Vista fix

No message, just a black screen. I, of course, Crtl+Alt+Delete and use the Manager to shut down BOBII.

Re: Vista fix

Bavvo, I have a brand-new 8 core Intel with the brand new (September '09) chips. BOBII works fine about 70% of the time. Loading a flight sim scenario results in a black screen at times. Otherwise, no problems. Getting in plenty of stick time and love the new incarnation. Wish the 110s had proper sk...

Re: Vista fix

Forgot to "disable desktop composition"! I still am getting black screens when the scenario is loading, but not as frequently. Happens randomly regardless of the numbers of aircraft and amount of processor work involved. I have an eight-core very high end system so "note 5" does ...

Re: Vista fix

No, it didn't. Sometimes the Instant Action scenarios work, sometimes they freeze, and sometimes I get a black screen.

Here was the "purple haze"---did an error check and defrag and it is no longer like blue paint : http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s261/G6AS/PURPLEHAZEBLOWSMYMIND2-4.jpg "Silent" engine seems to have been due to the need for the EC and DF---roars now. LOVE the Accusim 47. Love t...

Re: Smoke -Smoke Everywhere

Yes, but smoke the color of a freshly painted Navy Blue Hellcat. It is dark blue It doesn't look right. Engines burning oil do not spit dark blue smoke. Also, the 2000hp engine noise could hardly be heard over rain patter---even at full throttle. I'm wondering if something is wrong with my installat...

Re: Smoke -Smoke Everywhere

I know, but dark blue smoke? Looks unrealistic unless somebody left a drum of Navy Blue in the fuel tank!

Re: Smoke -Smoke Everywhere

P.S. My engine was hardly making any noise over the drizzle...

Otherwise, an incredible production. Any Accusim is an automatic buy for me.

Re: Smoke -Smoke Everywhere

I tried to hop in without reading the manual and ended up in a field in flames after about five minutes! I was getting deep blue smoke from my exhausts when I started up---was this what Hendrix was talking about in "Purple Haze"?
