Stormin Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 I am experiencing a problem that I have never seen before. I am recording TRK files for a mission where several pairs of A-10s are attacking various primary and secondary targets with a variety of ordnance. I start the mission with the record option and when I a finished with the mission the dialog box asking for a file name appears. I give it a name and hit SAVE. This produces a TRK file that is only 2KB in size and will not load. Anyone else run into this problem? I've make many track files in the past and never encountered this problem before. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers, Carl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGTharos Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 Yeah, I've run into something -like- this ... but not exactly this per se. It seems that there's some error where LOMAC on some occasions, possibly, specifically when the track is rather large, as well as other reasons, fails to save pretty much anything into the track, except for the original setup. It would be useful to send the mission file to ED for debugging of this problem - your mission file, not the tracks.

Ironhand Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 Well...you're certainly not alone. It's happened frequently enough on my end as well, usually when A-10s are involved. I've come to think of the 2KB file as an empty track framework with no data--don't know if that's correct or not, though. I've seen it happen most frequently when the track and mission BAK files are not deleted by the program after either a recording is attempted. If you then try to record a second track with the mission, you get the 2KB file. From time to time that will even corrupt the original mission as well. I've learned to backup everything before I either make or edit a track and always start with a fresh copy. Sometimes, though, that 2KB file just happens. And I have no idea why.

Stormin Posted January 25, 2005 Author Share Posted January 25, 2005 Thanks for the reply Gents. Rich, It does indeed include a BAK file. I'll have to try to work around it. Cheers, Carl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know if that helps. Im glad to see you still flying the lomac sky's Stormin S! Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
