Hello All, Just to let everyone know who is wondering if TF dropped off the face of the earth... no, we are still here. We are busy right now in putting together our first Beta for the Beta Testing group... it is taking longer than we expected for a number of reasons, mostly to due with the fact we are all doing this in our spare time and sometimes real life work and family demands reduce the available time we have for the game development. But overall progress on TF 5.0 is going well... all the major aircraft have their 3D work completed, the map development is going well, the new music has been composed, new ships/vehicles are progressing rapidly, etc. Of course the devil is in the details... as is the case in the example below where you see the new Macchi C.202 Series III model. (will also be a series VIII, with the option for versions of both series with high alt engines) As you can see in the image, there are elements which need work... the prop blade damage is not implemented, the pilot is improperly positioned, grass still shows through the wing, (that is code work), etc. etc. All of which, naturally, will be corrected as the work goes on. But overall we are making good progress. Bonkin and I plan to have a proper update out for the community in the next two weeks. Cheers, Pattle

Seems completely reasonable to me.....

Not a bad influence, just the 'Voice of Unreason'

The pooter runs very smoothly but I think the monitor is in the process of leaving us..... The lines reappeared this morning and I have slightly blurred text. It doesn't prevent me doing anything but the colour and clarity isn't what it should be. Apparently these issues are common in this monitor although the posts on the interweb were 2014/15. What is a nuisance was the way in whatever happened caused the nvidia driver issues. Those are sorted now...still running the earlier version from 2018 but may well update at some point if there is a need although everything I run predates the driver anyway. I won't be running SLI as I don't need to now, I think those days are over. A single 1070 is fine for 2k monitors and high refresh rates so I am thinking about replacing the monitor before something explodes.... Cheerzen

Excellent progress. Uninstalled device, removed drivers, cleared out nvidia driver folder from c drive. Rebooted and have DP monitor without lines, have nvidia control panel and 2 monitors running. Pooter installed nvidia driver version 399.07 which doesn't appear to be very old so I'll keep it for the next few days...maybe for good if it all works ok. Going to reinstall the RAM and gradually put things back, rebooting and checking. Looks like a corruption of the nvidia files took place somewhere along the line. Thanks FT and Crash

Of course you could always buy a second hand Rift instead of a monitor
