December 24, 200223 yr Can anyone tell me if the new DirectX release will help/hinder or otherwise affect FlyII?Thanks in advance.
December 24, 200223 yr Hi,I`ve downloaded it and no problems.But I think it is a little bit sharper than DirectX 8.1Regards, Mike
December 25, 200223 yr JakeI also have downloaded and installed DirectX9.0 with no problems. I agree with Mike re:slight increase in sharpness of tiles and models, no noticeable increase nor decrease in fps.Happy HolidaysRobert
December 26, 200223 yr I'm downloading as I speak, directx 9, nvidia detonaotr 41.09, and just downloaded the new drivers for my sound card.I'll give feedback as soon as I have tested everythingCheers
December 26, 200223 yr Hi,sounds good.But maybe I`ve found a bug.When I push "c" for the outside view Fly often crashes to Desktop without warning!DirectX 9.0GeForce 4200 128MBDDRregards, Mike
December 27, 200223 yr MikeAfter installing the latest Fly! II patch and DirectX9.0, I had 5 CTD's on a flight plan from KHOU to KDEN, 4 right out of the gate and the last one on final approach. I removed an add-on view accessed by the "c" key, Overhead Camera from Miscellaneous category, file: Overheadcamera_v100.zip dated 3/28/02, and have not had another CTD since, knock on wood. I removed OverheadCamera.dll from modulespc folder and changed datacameras.txt file back to the original;5spot,Spot Camera,1chas,Chase Camera,1obsv,Stationary Camera,1flyb,Fly-By Camera,1towr,Tower Camera,1Hope this helps.Robert
