Thank you Tomas!

So you're saying the Hind is unique in that when you yaw it, the aircraft will roll in the opposite direction when cruising? I can't believe I'm the only one to have brought this up. Maybe that's what the real thing does, but I've mentioned it like 3 or 4 times with no prior responses from anyone, and I'd have thought even then it would have specifically been pointed out as an "accurate oddity", or something. Well, o.k. then.

I have now enabled the fps-counter on screen and without the cockpit view I have 31 fps, when the cockpit is on it's only 16...

I can not understand why my system is going down that much just because of the cockpit fully displayed. Glass cockpit and details lowering doesn't improve the frames/s at all. I also tried the new beta drivers for Nvidia notebook cards, but that didn't work at all, the game couldn't be displayed correctly, so I went back to the latest drivers we have for the 8600M.

I'm close to give up and delete the game from my HDD, I simply don't know what to do and why others don't have any probs at all. My machine is strong enough for much newer and more demanding games and this here simply cuts down the frames to unplayable quality.

Any ideas left folks? I would love to really dive into this game, learn it well and all, but not with this eye hurting slowdowns...that's not fun.

Any help appreciated.

Might be the flir. I get about what you're getting with Flir. If flir is off and I'm in hud only mode, it often goes up to the v-sync in rural areas.

Seems I can't switch the FLIR off, neither the middle mouse button or CTRL+Del does anything to change it. When the heli is standing on the ground and I do absolutely nothing the frame/s is around 16. When I switch to the FLIR display it drops to 12.

The interesting thing is that the frame rate is cut by something that has nothing to do with moving the helicopter, I have bad frames in cockpit view even while standing on the ground. Weird and not playable this way - alas.

Strange. My computer is not new and it's fine. I even have high lod on and it's still playable. Make sure long term smoke is off, too. I had difficulty way back when I was running an 800xt All In Wonder, but I was accidentally running it in PCI mode until it burned out on me...heh heh. Would have been a lot faster and quite stable if I'd had the AGP drivers installed first for my motherboard. Oh well, the 3850 is fast. And try turning all features off in your graphics card just to rule that out as the reason. Now Blackshark, that thing's a pain to get running smoothly all the time. What do you have against running in HUD-only mode, though? The cockpits are pretty, but you can just pretend it's a UCAV. Hokey, but effective self-psyching method.

Destroys completely the atmo for me, really. I always use cockpit view no matter what the game is about, flying, racing etc.. And I would like to have the working displays. It's all about immersion you know. But so far nothing has made any change to the weird situation and unless somone can come up with a solution, I won't be able to enjoy and play the game.

Thanks for your input.

I noticed this last night too. I was only flying for a few minutes, so I didn't get to test all the aspects of the flight model. I usually do a control hover before heading out but I was too excited to have been playing EECH for the first time in a year. I'll get back to you on this Reticuli

.

Thank You so Much for this Update My White flasshes have been Fixed YaHoo I can Play EECH Again

daymn it Arneh...

can you PLZ work with DCS Eagle Dynamics...

I WANT A High Definition AH-64A or D simulator with coop capability...I think if they had your talent, it would be released sooner

congratulations guys
this sim RULES!!

I just installed the latest version 1.11 from the below website

http://www.eechcentral.com/

I installed it as directed i.e i installed EECH from the disk and then installed
1.11 directly over the top, I notice I get some graphic distortions in the cockpit sometimes and I got some questions

(1)Do you need to install patch 1.4.1c or any patch before you install 1.11?
(2)I seem to have lost my favourite urban skirimish scenario its set over Dimascus. Has
it been removed or is their something wrong with my install?
(3)Will applying patch 1.11.1 solve my graphic distortion problem (I am running a nvidia 285 BFG OCX with a 7750 AMD processor).

Shouldn't need to if you installed the allMods patch, and not just the new exe.




I haven't removed any skirmishes. You did install the allMods patch?



I'm not sure what graphics distortions you are getting, but doesn't sound like what was fixed in 1.11.1. Though you should install it in any case, it fixes several things.

thanks for the reply.
Yes I did install the 500mb+ all mods patch.
(1)The skirmish I used to play in the basic game had the red force controlling damascus and the blue force to the south, it was a good skirmish as it was mostly based over the city.
I can t seem to find it any longer in the list of Skirmishes, in addition there seem to be some additions such as Libiya which when u clik on them there is no Skirmish behind the country title, not sure if this is a bug or my install is faulty?
(2)The graphic distortions seem to have mostly been solved my the patch although i sometimes still get some jaggy white lines looking forward in the cockpit (for some reason particulary on the Hind)
(3)How do u decrease the size of the helmet mounted HUD (i.e green flight
information that is displayed on visor of your helmet), in the eech.ini file my highreshud toggle is set to 1 but i still get a huge green hud and when i press Alt-F1 i just get kicked to desktop and it doesnt seem to reduce the HUD size?
(4)Also i am finding when i start some mission my helo is sunk in the ground(u cant see undercarriage) is this a bug?

I don't know all skirmishes, so can't tell which one you used to play.
Not all maps have skirmishes, some only have campaigns.





I don't know any solution for the occasional white lines. Let me know if you find some.





I believe Alf-F1 should be the command. Which helicopter do you fly when it crashes?




Depends which helicopter. If it's one of the non-standard ones then it doesn't have proper flight modeling but uses the Apache's, so if its size varies from the Apache it may look like it's sunk into the ground.
