Hi All. Sometimes, but not always i experience this problem, I will open up the game as normal [ clicking on the desktop icon ] two green lights on my Trakir sensor and the game open up as normal, select my plane and select the opposition.

 

Click start, while waiting i have all the opening sounds, get a complete load shown, and then all i'm left with is a blank screen [ with sound ] I them go to Windows task manager which shows the launcher and the game running, I then click and remove both and return to desktop. There is no game icon showing in task bar which you would expect, when I try to re-launch the game, i get this message

 

" Another instance of this launcher is already running "  to solve this problem I have to re-boot to be able to launch the game successfully. Would this be a Windows fault or is it BoS ?

 

 

Cheers. JM. :salute:

I had that issue for a while. Look at the task bar rather then the launcher when you are about to start. If the BOS is in the task bar click on that . The game will start from there.

I've been getting this issue also and the only way I can get rid of it is by rebooting my computer...

Sometimes you cannot close it with the task manager you have no mouse because of the Tracker IR so you

either reboot or sign out and then back in again.

 

If the two tracker IR lights stay on then reboot.

 

It has always done this for me with Win 10.

your mouse disappears??

Sometimes its just tabbed out to desktop so I just use 'Alt + Tab' to get back into game. Could it be similar to this case?

Try killing the process in the "processes" tab instead of "applications" in the task manager.

Yes, if you cant use the mouse try using tab and space to navigate thought the task manager and kill the process.

 

Another way around it to avoid a crash is to have the headset on (with the trackclip on) in front of the TIR camera before loading the mission.

 

For me it crashes when i put the headset on AFTER the mission has loaded...

Does not work the game stays black with like what is mentioned up above.

Some times the Task manager hangs and does not respond and you have no mouse

no matter what you do.

Same as above and in some circumstances you try and shut everything down and the Tracker IR camera leds stay

on even with the programme closed.

 

If you alt tab out and you want back in the game forget it with this computer  this once again is the ONLY game

that does not work with alt tab or the windows key to jump to desktop all the other games work.

 

Guys that are getting these issues try this to see if this bug happens to you too.

 

It is annoying as hell if you have this  problem to  in game when you press F9 to turn

the Tracker IR camera off and the LEDS go red and EVERY TIME you repress F9 and the LEDS change back to

green to get back TR in game and the screen freezes and all you have is sound.

 

The computer freezes so bad you have to reboot it nothing works to get it back even it stays on the last frame

you had in the plane and the sound continues.

 

Another thing when I had Win 7 with this game NONE OF THIS HAPPENED NONE OF IT..

 

And it happens on both my video cards the old GTX 660 OC 2GB and my New Geforce 960M AMP 4GB
