So everytime i fire the (this is what it says next to weapon in hud) ? weapon from the super cobra the game crashes.....anyone else had ths problem? How can i modify the weapons so i can carry something else and what the heck is the ? weapon anyway? Appears to be TOW missiles possibly? Again, in the hud it says question mark symbol (?) x4.

Hmm, probably TOW-missiles. You can change weapon loadout before takeoff and remove them.

Try a campaign close to the sea, the Cobras are usually based on carriers.

We can fly in Cobras? How?

Next you will be saying we can fly the Hind too!









*I was joking about the Hind smile

When flying non standard aircraft its a good idea not to input the "right" side MFD as it used to cause CTD in multiplay as well.

It's not really a Cobra, it's an Apache with the Cobra external 3D model and weapons. But you fly it like most other helicopters, just select a flight of Cobras in a campaign to fly (and make sure you have faa=1 in eech.ini).

IIRC each of "default" helicopters has the only unchangeable loadout, Cobra too.

Hi there,

got a very similar experience with non-standard aircraft.
In my hands, the game crahes only when scrolling over the MFD display that resembles the HUD-like projection with airspeed, climb, angle and so on (there´s probably a special term for that)
I think one can circumvent this by getting the right MFD to start with a display other than the HUD-like stuff, e.g. by activating FLIR. Once there´s another page displayed, one can scroll through all available pages without CTD.

Cheers!

Please report a bug about such issues in the bug tracker. That way it won't be forgotten.

Is there some message which shows up, or does it just silently crash to desktop?

It silently crashes arneh, windows opens a box that says "cohokum has stopped responding and needs to close" thats all it says. Recently tho, every time i exit the game i get this error message:

************************************ FATAL ***********************************
ASSERT update_counter == 0 (D:\WORK\EECH\eech-release\aphavoc\source\update.c:146)

Have no clue what it means and sometimes i get an "invalid targeting system crash" when i switch from apache to comanche as well.....

It would be best if you could report a bug for each issue in the bug tracker. Include as much information as possible about exactly what you're doing before the crash happens (what keys are you pressing etc.), and exactly what happens at each stage.
