BoonieRat 0 Posted July 23, 2002 You're on about the mouse/keypad movement conflict!. Usually if you press the free look key so's you can move your head around it goes away. It used to happen in tanks and other Vehicles as well. did you upgrade OFP to 1.46 before installing Resistance?. 1.46 fixed it for me in OFP. PS. did you disable joystick support?. don't know if it makes a difference. I always do it straight off ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Harnu 0 Posted July 23, 2002 I had 1.46 before I got resistance. (1.49 it said for me ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harnu 0 Posted July 23, 2002 Ahhhh, i just disabled my joystick and its a lot less shaky. Â Still a little bit sometimes but other than that, its nice and still. thx man! no wait a second. As i'm trying it more its shaking just as bad as before! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BoonieRat 0 Posted July 25, 2002 Have you got any other add~ons installed?. It might be worth saveing your Campaigns and doing a reinstall from scratch cause all that was cleared up for me with 1.46,(yeah the #'s are different in alot of patches). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eviscerator 0 Posted July 25, 2002 well because if you dont use auto hover then look down with the camera the hokum will fly forwards following your cursor and youll end up hitting a house/tree/mountain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PFC_Mike 2 Posted July 25, 2002 you might be interested to know that the 30mm cannon on the Ka-50 is the same as the one in the BMP-2. That's probably why it seems kinda weak against armor. As for shakiness, I haven't had that problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BoonieRat 0 Posted July 25, 2002 DAMN!! I'm getting it too now! ... First off, I just fixed the cooling(overheating) with my Gf3Ti500. I can bump it up now and the little square on the back of the card where the GPU lives is cool!(whoa yeah baby!!, bout fukin time! anyone ever lapped their GPU?. no fun!. Before I thought I was getting bad frames in the Helo mission 'Rats Nest' turns out its not bad FPS causing the jerky screen!. its like it no~matter what!. It don't make any difference with me if you auto hover. it is 10X more noticable when you're not moving though. the screen, not the helo, shudders about side to side mainly, but up and down as well!. If you havn't tried it, play 'Rats Nest' and go into a 'auto hover' once you've killed the bad guys, or before if you're hopeless ., and hover~still(with or without auto) and see if the screen wobbles about. it does for me!. not so noticable when you're moving. though it does feel like a poor frame rate but is'nt...

Harnu 0 Posted July 25, 2002 It shakes like hell for me. It turns left to right a bit. BUt only when going real slow, or after maneuvers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Harnu 0 Posted July 26, 2002 But atelast doesn't it seem like its balance on a pin? After I do turns and such I'll get locked nose down heading for the ground and usually can't pull out of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deus Ex 0 Posted July 26, 2002 Same thing happens to me, The V-80's handling really sucks. I'm not even going to use it in any of my maps lol. The AI even has a hard time flying the damn thing, they end up crashing it lol!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BoonieRat 0 Posted July 26, 2002 I get loads more 'stalls' with the V80 than with other Helos'. it'll slip off to one side after a tight turn more often than not. the target lock on is not right(other helos and ground troops). the screen/Helo shake is not right. the handling is not right.AI crash when trying to fly it!...
