Hi all SDOE wizards,

I badly need your help... I just installed the SDOE soft, along with :
CD ROM patch
1.5 Patch
Plane pack 5.3 (with patch)
Contest 1.1

The game loads nicely. But if I want to pay two missions in a row, I get a frozen screen (need to reboot)

Every time I quit the game, my desktop has its colour changed to bright green...

I also would like to know how I can look 45° upward...

I would like to know how I can have the distance to target on the screen, not simply on the map...

Thank you in advance!

Specifications :
Celeron 300a @450
128 Mo RAM (100 MHz)
Voodoo Banshee
SB 64 PCI
DirectX 7.0a

To look 45 degrees up, hold the Numpad5 key along with a direcction arrow.

As for your lockup, do you have the latest video and sound drivers for your card? You might try reinstalling them. And also reinstall DX7. Sometimes Windows drivers get stale.

Distance to target on screen: Two ways -

1)Alt M will toggle a target radar screen in the upper right corner. R cycles the range (2,5,10 miles) This will give you approximate distances to and relative locations of all nearby aircraft and the bomb targets as set in the mission.

2) After targeting an enemy plane press C. This will display the exact distance to target in the lower left corner. Air targets only.

Bienvenue à bord

Be aware that some additional aircraft produce desktop crashes, like the Ju88C6. That's why they are not part of the online std.

Things are getting better...

I just installed the last Creative labs drivers for my Banshee card. It seems things get better.

No more freezing now (I have to make further tests to make sure).
