May I suggest Alinco3.


Also did you have the latest version of AC+?

since you didn't post an export here is one thing to check. GoArrow requires .net Framework 2, if you don't have it installed there maybe issues while running goarrow (anything from blows up when trying to run, to something small like your issue).


and no if .net framework 3.5 is installed you aren't covered.

Yeah, one look at that screenie and I could have told you it was AC+; I'm still trying to track down why this happens, I can't consistently reproduce it so it's difficult to track down; I know you can clear it by opening each of AC+'s huds and closing them again, but if you alt-tab a lot that's not going to help.

Edit: I just had another try to see if I can reproduce it, no luck. Can you post an export? Also, are you alt-tabbing to an app that uses the graphics card?

It's probably not as simple as this, but.. are you checking if the HUDs are lost (and re-creating them if so) before trying to render to them? In GoArrow, I also call hud.Dispose() before re-creating a lost HUD.


Also, if alt-tabbing doesn't repro this, you can try changing AC's resolution. That should cause a graphics reset (if that is indeed what's causing the problem).

Happened to me all the time.... still would happen but now I play in windows mode so I don't have to alt tab.

It does not happen when I don't run decal....


But windowed mode is the only thing that saved me.

Also same situation on my wife's comp.
