    Watch the track with pilot view on. at the end the view says goodbye and there's no way to control this, so the inevitable.

    Has THIS (V4.08 ntrk) happened to anyone else


    I haven't watched the track yet so I'll reserve some judgment but let me just say that its damaging to the community when anyone comes in and makes allot of assumptions before asking the right kinds of questions. You might be having a problem with your system after all...

    I had hardware issues that started to manifest in IL-2 where the screen would suddenly go black with certain aircraft on the screen. Soon as they were gone the screen came back. Turns out the RAM on my video card was going bad as a few months later the card started severely artifacting and its essentially dead.

    What you describe could be a hardware issue or a software issue that has nothing to do with anything else. Or it could be the hopefully unthinkable...

    EDIT: Watched the track and saw your view controls go nuts at the end. Do you use TrackIR or any sort of mouse view controls? Have you checked your joystick profile in the control panel to see if its having any sort of problem. Right before you had the problem you were pulling allot of moves on the stick and pushing on the hat controls (looks like) a fair bit and then it happened. Doesn't look like "cheating" at this point..nor does it sound like it.

    The game can behave a little weird sometimes...when i spawn in a FW190D my force feed back dies...not the stick just the FF,I have to unplug it ...then plug it back in then minimize the game toget it to come back on.

    if you think someone hooked your mosuse check "netstat" to see what connections there may be, otherwise start the pain staking bug hunt or harware checking.

    S!

    No answers I'm afraid, just more questions.

    When I viewed this with Manual view my mouse seemed twice as sensitive to what I normally use.
    (mouse sensitivity =0.5)
    Viewing my own or stock tracks; mouse movement appeared normal. How could a ntrk affect my mouse setting during playback?

    I did see a lot of AAA, though no mad warping.

    Just a thought, every so often my optical mouse will send my view into a spin. I mean like a top. Usually just a click will stop it, but sometimes I have to recalibrate the mouse to it's dock....

    PS. will check your track when I get home to see your prob....

    Yes I know.. I'm actually about to end it anyway. It has taken the fun out of the sim - Not the flying bit but the silly rules.

    Doesn't anybody fly on a similar/nicer 'war server'. Links please??

    my optical mouse does some crazy shiz also. what kind of surface is your mouse on? when on a multi-coloured surface or a surface with lots of different variations, that can mess up what the optical mouse is "seeing" as it's perception of the surface is confused when the surface changes, knaw mean?

    if your mouse was also moving while IL-2 was shut down, probably it is not an IL-2 cheat i have an optical mouse, and sometimes on my desk it 'starts to wander' across my screen... as said before, a good mouse pad is important, not too shiny, but well textured.

    rnzoli:
    I thought it might be, but I pulled my ,ouse plug out of the PC and it still wondered off to the one side. Maybe a driver problem, but it had never occured before on any IL2 server, but 3x in ADW ??. I thought of posting in ADW but I cannot register for some reason, but I'm not going to bother now as I'm leaving that scene.

    Thanks for the links Manos1

    I don't have a problem with the Rata, only when my view control dissapears with it
