I'm experiencing a "blind distance" where objects suddenly become invisible.

I used to have a lot troubles with my SA and then I read a post saying that lowering resolution and changing VisibilityDistance=5 would help, I did so, and it did work, targets in distance look much bigger.

But when I'm approaching targets, they suddenly disappear and come out of no where when I get closer (often on my 6, LOL).

I'm now at 1280*800, with following conf

@dreamofire: 5th line from the bottom: MeshShowLod=0

Try changing the "0" to "1" ie. MeshShowLod=1

This reduces/eliminates the disappearing act as the pixel transitions to a LOD rendering. However, you may find you will be paying a price in frame rate reduction and may wish to change back.

Good luck.

were the patch notes released....if so where can they be found....if not...how are the users supposed to beta test this...for all we know most of the bugs that we "find" could have simply been known issues that would have been stated in the patch notes....

[kristorf]

As far as I can tell they were not released..........................saying nothing else

[Tigertooo]

can i kindly ask who deleted my post of yesterday and why?
Sincerely

This has probably been mentioned but my Hurricanes and Me 109s open with engines going, I must stop and restart them, and then the AC refuse to move. At least my Bf 110 works while the techies scramble. I hope they get it fixed as I dearly love this sim. I have RoF to play with, meanwhile.

Did you make sure that your prop pitch is at 12:00 or full fine. In online missions it's bugged and the prop pitch clock will wind down on it's own to 9:00 full coarse and the plane won't move.
