I still can't get enough of this great new damage model, but... unfortunately I am having ctd problems pretty consistently when I score a hit to the left side of the the 51 from behind it. Is this due to the texture mapping problem you have mentioned before?

The mission I am running is the test mission included with the zip file.

1. Which version were you testing (CSD, noCSD or TestModel)?

2. How many hits did it take.

3. Could you tell what part was hit (WingTip, inner wing, body)?

4. Was this the fist plane damaged?

5. Has this always happened or did it just start.

Condor, thanks for your help with this. Aladar had a problem with the throttle that did not seem to effect other players. I tell you sometimes this stuff gets spooky.

Condor, can you delete the P51D directory and unzip the beta again, see if that helps.

Has anybody else experienced any CTD problems with the P-51D beta 3?

Sorry, I should have included some of the specifics.

1)CSD and Test Model used. I get ctd on both. I will try the nocsd tonight.

2) More than a few hits(meaning I start to see debrie and then the ctd.

3) Can't tell for sure, but if I was betting I would bet on the left side carburater area.
It is hard because I am usually shooting from just slightly to the left of the 6 o'clock position and about 150 - 300 feet back. I don't think it is the wing tip because I would see the colored smoke when using the test model and I don't see it so the inner left wing or fuse has to be getting hit. I have never had a ctd when shooting on the right side of the plane anywhere.

4) Yes, it is the first plane to be damaged and it is also the lead plane in the enemy squadron.

5) It just started, but I have a feeling I have just never been hitting this side of the plane. I started using a new attack tactic by hitting the sides of the plane instead of just doing tail shots and the ctd's started.

I will delete my texture file and retest and then also delete the p51 directory and reinstall the beta3 and retest as well.
I will let you know the results as soon as I can.
Please feel free to email me the beta 4. I would love to test it out for you as well. No problem on the testing. This is the best thing to happen to sdoe and is well worth my time.

I use d3d driver mostly but the ctd also happens in glide.

I haven't received the lastest version from you yet. Just seeing if you sent it and I didn't get it or just other things like life have gotten in the way. Funny how life can get in the way sometimes.
