[4.3.3] Black screen after take off and grphics issues
-
guys why is this a problem? you fly in satellite view?
yes it’s an issue, as you say, didn’t check it personally, but minor I would say, mostly affects video recordings. Maybe it’s a step forward for simulated realistic video recordings… :lol: on the last. -

Maybe it’s a step forward for simulated realistic video recordings… :lol: on the last.What the prob is? The prob is, that I get a BlackScreen each ~15 Min.! And this is “deadly”, especially you fly e.g. a campaign mission and the sim crashes short to the landing!
And to the first pics (no gear, no a/c), I do not know if there is a context to the BlackScreen’s… It can, cannot, I do not know.Ah, and BTW and not to forget: If I get a BlackScreen next time I will have at once a look on the temp’s…
Arty, it is a prob, these BlackScreen’s, You fly through the world and at the point you get happy, you was thrown out!
Til then, and please sent your specs!

Hi,
made some test flights this evening because of the BlackSreen’s.
Result:
Same TE like yesterday (Training from Kimpo) ->
some bombs over Kotar range ->
a short BlackScreen (~2sec.)
RTB ->
WP 7, 8, 9, 10 (landing) -> short to Kimpo -> BlackScreen full[1] Made a new TE nearly the same ass the TE before.
There I take off from the runway and selected nearly direct (still over Kimpo) WP 10 (landing)…
Result:
Full BlackScreen after some sec…Started this new TE again but stayed at WP 1.and made a round over Kimpo.
Result:
I could land (my first with 4.3.3!)[2] Started again this TE, made a round over Kimpo, but selected again WP 10 (landing).
Result:
I could land.The difference between [1] and [2] was, that the AI-wingman made RTB directly I set the landing waypoint…
Any ideas to this behaviour?Greeting

m8 tried it yesterday with 64bit and 32bit 4.33 no problems at all.
So play with your gfx settings or redance. -
m8 tried it yesterday with 64bit and 32bit 4.33 no problems at all.
So play with your gfx settings or redance.I am really glad, that you now can fly without any risk of any crash (I’ve read the thread!). But what the hell has it to do with BlackScreen’s e.g. after throwing bombs?!
And what the hell shall this mean to me: “…tried yesterday and I have no probs…”
Really… <no words=“”>And you guys, who posted with the same prob, or nearly the same, where are you?! It would be really nice to have a comparison, especially with the rigs…</no> -
General fix for Graphics Card Black Screens regardless of Operating system.
STep One, Find Out what graphics card you have installed and write it down. The reason will become clear later.
2. Go to the MANUFATURERS site not the microsoft site for downloading the drivers, DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES NO MATTER WHAT YOUR MATE SAID get them from any other site apart from the manufacturers website and get the correct language for your machine as well as the 64 or 32 bit version. Yes the drivers will be old but at least they will work. Falcons old etc.
3. Go to Control Panel and look for Programs and features, in there should be a listing of the name of the card you wrote down earlier and uninstall it. You may receive a warning which isnt surprising that the uninstall file doesnt exist any more, if this is the case then go straight to step 4. Uninstall the drivers and restart your machine
4. Run the driver installation program you have downloaded and OVERWRITE ALL files no matter what junks been shoved in there by Microsoft in the mean time to make your installation compatable with windows 10.
5. Once the latest driver packs installed reboot your machines ALWAYS.
For those who have registry checkers I would suggest you use them at this time, those in need of one can download one I use frequently CCLEANER, manufactured and programmed by Piriform. ONLY get it from Piriform and nowhere else. Its free and this isnt an advert.
Reboot your machine and try out falcon now and all should be fine.

Earlybite I understand your frustration. I still have problems.
But you should check your system and drivers better.
I checked some stuff you say like the satellite view with the problems and I have no such problems.
So play with your settings and drivers.
Narrow down the list that might cause problems.
When I first run 4.32 I had many problems. I reinstalled and all gone.Trying to help m8… have courage it will be solved or designated, I’m sure.

I’ve the latest driver installed for my AMD HD-7770…
Forget for now about this f*g graphic issue with the gear, or the missing a/c’s…
Just made another new TE:
After throwing some bombs over Kotar screen goes black for about 2sec., then again all fine.
Meanwhile the sim runs with ~33FPS, over Kimpo it is ~28FPS, and with TGP ~25FPS.
And the very best is, that I could land the very first time, as I came back from a training mission and switch WP’s to 10 (imc the landing WP), with FPS ~29.
But, the hell, why?! Why do I had full BlackScreen’s before, and now they are gone?!<hopefully for=“” ever,=“” with=“” the=“” ecxeption=“” of=“” few=“” sec.=“” after=“” throwing=“” bombs=“”>.Later in the evening I will make another TE with an easy A2A fight. I’m curious if I get a short BlackScreen, too, when the enemy a/c expplodes…
The sim now (4.3.3) is hard at the edge of my graphic cards efficiency, I know.</hopefully>

Hi, can you record a vid of the black screen you are getting after throwing bombs? is it after bombs are separated from the AC or after the explosion on the ground/target?

I’m sorry. Making videos was on my ToDo-list, but momentary not.
I can throw the bombs and after they explode, the BlackScreen occurs.
In my case I’ve thrown 4 bombs[1] and it seems that it happens after the second, or the third detonation…I’ not really sure at the moment. And it is equal, if it is from inside the cockpit, or from e.g. sat view. (FPS in sat view is ~40, and inside cockpit ~31.)
I also changed the registry in Win-7-64 (HomePremium) by adding a TDR delay up to 8… (default is 2 sec.). Here I can test, what happens, if I remove the updated TDR delay[1] It happend now 3 times in three different TE’s

OK thanx.
Can you try the following please? go to your install into Data/Terrdata path
Cut the Particlesys.ini file to some other place, your desktop will be OK.
Launch the sim and retry. -
OK thanx.

Launch the sim and retry.Yes Sir, but later in the evening, then that should be no problem. And I then will report…
-
Ok, just flown again the TE, and had thrown some bombs over Kotar.
No explosions to see, yes? (Because of the Particlesys.ini, which is momentary on my desktop?)
No BlackScreen!
Wanted first to report, now I will give a try with reduced particles…Greeting
EarlybiteEDIT-1----------------------------------------
Just again thrown some bombs over Kotar, but again with Particlesys.ini in …\Data\Terrdata, but with reduced particles by config. And <tirili!>no BlackScreen!
Hope that it made my day! <finger crossing=“”>Thank you, Sir. Thank you very much!
Greeting
Earlybite <taking a=“” deep=“” breath=“”>EDIT-2---------------------------------------
No, again BlackScreen.
The difference:
First I’ve thrown some CBU’s without TGP. No BlackScreen…
Then some GBU’s with TGP. BlackScreen…full and freezed!
I think the sim got to be too hard for my poor HD-7770!
BTW: Do I had also a FPS drop with 4.3.2 and with TGP…? I’m asking because I never noticed it…
EDIT-3---------------------------------------
With weather ‘fair’ and min. clouds and with TGP, I get “only” a 2sec. BlackScreen.
Result: Maybe I can find a setting with (ultra-)minimal settings…
I think, else there is no way around for a new graphic card, because my HD-7770 is already OC until “under the roof”.Greeting

Hi,
to get an overview…a new post.
What have I done:
In the F-BMS Config:
Post-Processing-Effects->
HDR Lightning = off
Jet Heat = offNow FPS without TGP ~50FPS
With TGP ~36FPSBlackScreen occurs when:
Bombs explode and TGP is on, always…, and ~2sec. then the screen gets a reset.
EDIT:
Short before the BlackScreen i could saw some little light grey colored squares in the upper left quarter of the screen! (I guess 10 pieces in 10*10px, or so…)No BlackScreen when:
Bombs explode and no TGP is on,…always.(The last I could read, before the BlackScreen, was 88FPS in sat view…)
Any ideas?
Greeting
EarlybiteEDIT:
OK, I tried some more!Using a GBU with using TGP, or not (per CCIP) = BlackScreen after the first bomb explodes. (2sec, then screen gets refreshed)
Using any other type of bomb, even with TGP, no BlackScreen!
Using e.g. a AGM-65-g, also *no BlakScreen.
I wanted to try, to remove before takeoff theTGP while GBU’s loaded, to see what happens, but that is not possible…
Any ideas?

Interesting results… so basically you are saying that it’s only the GBU explosions causing your black screen. Specifically which GBUs are we talking about here? something specific or any LGBs (or maybe JDAMs also?)
Can you try to drop a GBU that does cause you such black screen and then drop an equivalent dumb bomb (e.g GBU-24B and MK-84, both will produce same PS effect).
Also, does the black screen depends on if you hit a target or not? what I mean specifically is if an explosion of target destroyed is also generated or not…
-
Yes, GBU’s raises BlackScreen’s, with or without using TGP.
Equal one single bomb, or four (e.g. riple = 4). I’ve tried IIRC with GBU-12 (2 each side).
But I can also try -38, and the other GBU’s.I’ve tested not all the bombs…, but also MK-82 and CBU-97, with and without TGP. And AGM-65g…
No matter, if a target (e.g. plane(s) on Kotar) was hit, or simply “throwing somewhere”, GBU = BlackScreen.
Til now I tested only with the smaller bombs, but tomorrow I will try some more types. Especially the GBU’s…I also tried a first AA combat, simply 2 F-16c-52 and some ‘Bear’s’. With AMRAAM and with AIM-9 (for this test the X version) and TGP, no problem.
I know, that it was much writing and maybe it looks a bit confused, but while testing, there raises here a thought and there, but I will put all together.
Til tomorrow and thanks for the interest.

OK,
just made some tests!
(Always in sat view when bombs impact, to avoid that low FPS could be the reason.)Flight-1:
New TE (TE-GBU-1) ->
GBU-10 -> over “red area” with a building as target -> TGP on -> alt ~11000 -> single bomb -> ALL FINE!Flight-2:
TE-GBU-1 ->
GBU-10 -> over “red area” with a building as target -> TGP on -> alt ~11000 -> riple 2 -> ALL FINE!Flight-3:
TE-GBU-1 ->
GBU-12 -> same as Flight-2 -> but riple 4 -> ALL FINE!Flight-4:
New TE (TE-GBU-2) ->
GBU-12 -> over Kotar range -> TPG on -> alt ~6000 -> riple 4 -> BlackScreen!Flight-5:
TE-GBU-1 ->
GBU-12 -> over “red area” with a building as target -> TGP on -> alt ~6000 -> riple 4 -> BlackScreen!Flight-6:
TE-GBU-2 ->
GBU-12 -> over Kotar range -> TPG on -> alt ~11000 -> riple 4 -> ALL FINE!Flight-7:
TE-GBU-2 ->
CBU-97 -> over Kotar range -> TPG on -> alt ~6000 -> riple 4 -> ALL FINE!It looks like that GBU’s raises BlackScreen in low altitude…
Greeting
EarlybiteEDIT:
And this is a pic with this grey colored squares:
It happens when I was back from training flight (from Kimpo) with a little AAR and as soon as I reached the landing WP, ~7 miles before Kimpo, these squares appeared.
It is the “same” as I got a BlackScreen while my bombs-tests… -
I’ve done some more tests…
I reduced/unchecked nearly all eyecandy, even weather is only sunny.
Now I have with TGP on ~35FPS. This allows me now to fly BlackScreen-Free with GBU’s.BTW: I’ve made a TE with a little A2A and with tank busting. While the A2A fight with TGP on I had FPS ~25! But all was smooth and fine…
IMHO, there is still the point, why BlackScreen in low altitude and only with GBU’s?!
One test flight e.g. was at alt ~6000 with GBU-10 and no BlackScreen after the impact of the bombs (riple 2), but with alt ~4000 again BlackScreen.My Computer:
i5-3450 (3,1 GHz), SSD, 8 GB RAM, AMD HD-7770 1 GB VRAM, 27" monitor 2560*1440My FPS now:
In sat view ~90
In cockpit ~55
In cockpit with TGP on ~35The question is still up:
And please, why BlackScreen’s with GBU’s and only with GBU’s, even with GBU-12 single thrown?TIA

Earlybite good to ask but all those years and reading specially nvidia changelog docs on new drivers releases, I realized that in many occasions, drivers fix specific problems on specific games, that someone wouldn’t even think about and mainly he would say it’s a game problem and not a driver issue.
Just saying.
The thing is that BMS isn’t considered a commercial product-company nor a best seller to pay attention to it and try to fix problems that might be from their end.
In the past there where initiatives to try and engage them but they fall to void… we are xx.xxx members and we don’t have the power and way to engage them.

I’m not really understanding you…
I never had a problem with GBU’s with 4.3.2, or BlackScreens at all.
Surely is the latest driver installed for my GC.
And, with 4.3.2, I never noticed a FPS drop (~15!) because of turning on TGP and on one MFD.
