ok had a launcher crash right now on Rebka4...
i think everybody on the server crashed in the exact moment, as i restartet the game, the server was suddenly empty, except my name was still visible in the playerlist.

but the really annoying thing now is, that i cannot connect to it anymore.
the game will crash everytime i try to connect to this server.when i then restart the game and try again to connect, i get a serverfailauthentification message, because the server still thinks im connected.
this will stay, until i connect to another server(which is no problem btw).i can connect to any other server, but rebka4, i either get a game crash or this authentification message.
i tried it now about 20times.then i restarted steam, with no joy, and even a reboot of the pc doesnt work....i take my thank you back until this is solved... :)

Update has done a fantastic job for me- no CTD's and framerates now faster and smoother. I can now fly around london on highest settings and get very good results.
Online i was getting freezes, but blocking skins fixed that issue.
Dogfighting is much more fun now, i dont get slowdowns as i approach another aircraft. This used to be a big problem for me, especially with Ju88's for some reason.

The only video problem i now have are some glitches when using external views. Some background objects showing through aircraft occassionaly, especially bomb craters. This is quite random however and seems to go away if i change the view for a moment and then return.

These were disabled for the purposes of the beta test, as were flashes.

• No damage decals on aircraft from small-caliber hits.
• The hit flash effects are temporarily turned off.

Which line is that? It's something I have wanted to do a long time as I have connected that to online stuttering... Like in this post from October last year where I reposted a mail to Ilya after the last official patch http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...5&postcount=78

It is in the game menu. Network settings screen.

This is a server specific issue. Repka admins can not figure out what causes it. Please send crashdumps and log.txt to Luthier. Maybe the devs can help.

Exactly the same happened to me David with LE crashing trying to join any server after a server crashed.

I had to roll back using Steam Verify Integrity - then re-installed the alpha with hotfix and deleted the cache/shaders files before starting CLOD.

We’re not done investigating that one yet however, so we haven’t yet fixed it.

On that note, for those who don't have dedicated game PC, as in they have alot of 'other' software installed for work or what ever, and are 'not' that good at manually configuring their PC for game play.. Those types should consider looking at IOBit's Game Booster. It can unloaded alot of un-necessary programs and generally optimse your PC prior to launching the game.
