Yes Gordon, Sounds crap doesnt it...

There was a thread on this subject when the 500 was introduced some weeks back. Still sounds the same though..

On the plus side have you tried the auto's with the 500..

You can't crash it if you try, Every auto perfect..

Ian.

As mattydred quoted mine is also crashing too when I join a session..

Never ever had a problem with Phoenix but this version definately need a polish up..

Works perfect when not in session but as soon as I join it closes the program.

CRASH.

I have emailed support tonight, They are usually very good so fingers crossed it should be sorted out real soon.

hi i installed 105.i yesterday but it affected the griffics on the models, they went blurry as they passed by close up
so i took it out,
love the sim to bit though its very good , i did have some trouble with a downloaded tutor 40 though after a reinstall including the tutor because of 105.i
the tutor went nuts kept banking over ? even after recalibrating, & the electric heli trainer rotors wouldn't start, and then i started getting low frame rates
so i removed all of the sim i could find ( it tends to hang around a bit ) did a system restore and reinstalled again, the sim is back as if it was the first install again
i had a quick look and the fps and there ok again, phew.
fingers crossed

[tgreener]

nope geees!
the frame rates are back to terrible again its just the background that was doing it so iv reinstalled the graphics card driver & that seems to have sorted it I think i said that last time but fingers crossed again
I'm nothing if not an optimist.

Had to uninstall Phoenix from my computer completly..

Took the lot off after it was crashing badly with the 1.05i version and wanting to re-calibrate the tranny everytime I started the program.


Re-installed from the phoenix disc and put all updates back on up to 1.05h.

The latest 1.05i can stay away from my PC until its sorted out..

Have not heard from Phoenix since I emailed them. I presume they are on the case as they are normally very good back stage.

Glad I was away for the weekend then

1.05h had various graphics bugs, and would hang on startup if I didnt have tx or dongle plugged in (had to terminate process to get it back)

1.05i seems to be working no problems for me.

1.05i seems to be working no problems for me.

Does it work when joining a session too Rat..

Must admit mine worked for 10 minutes until it threw a wobbly then that was the end.

Works fine again now with 1.05h.

[tgreener]

nope its still going lumpy damit
not with the aircraft though ? its the background it was ok before i updated to 105.i
the best results i get know is with every thing maxed in display settings. 1920 - 1200 60hz fps counter says I'm getting 50-65, fps, it seems smooth but then jerks, a bit like if your using a camcorder with a crap image stabilizer.
it moves then jerks moves then jerks at about 5 to 7 frame per sec at its worst.
if i reduce everything to minimum in the display settings its unflyable, the less i ask it to do the worse it gets ?? a memory leak perhaps, ive emailed the guys at phoenix and asked for help.
not sure if this is the right forum for this but if your interested the pc specs are


XP HOME UPDATED TO SP2
GIGABYTE MAIN BOARD
4 GIGS 800 DUAL CHANNEL CORSAIR MEM
RADION X1950 512MB GRAPHICS CARD
800W PSU
FF7 TRANY

Has anyone emailed Phoenix regarding these issues & have confirmation that a fix is on the way??

I'm having Multiplayer stability issues & poor framerate issues also & don't want to clutter their Inbox if they're currently working on a fix.

Do you have SUNGLOW enabled in your system settings > display menu HiroboFreak?
