Overall performance and stability is good and about the same with beta-2 as with current Steam version. Early glitches I experienced were solved with a Windows restart.
The colors are better than pre-beta though a bit over saturated and with a bit too much contrast. Cities look much better. I do like the structural noise and air turbulence on extreme maneuvers and the enhanced audio (in cockpit guns sounds are an improvement... the in cockpit engine sound seems less realistic, being unmuffled and essentially the same as the external... the external engine sound is improved). Definitely appreciate the effort that has been put into creating and improving the game! One observation on the physics model: I did notice on a fly through of London, that when one wing intersects a solid object (such as a brick smokestack), while the wing is sheared off nicely, there is no evidence at all of the asymmetric effect of the impact, which should cause the plane to instantaneously yaw wildly towards the side of the impact. Also, I second an earlier observation that it would be great if engineering specifications could be part of the "Realism" options, where maneuvers that over stress the plane would cause structural failure (like opening the landing flaps at high speed or making extreme maneuvers at the bottom of over-speed dives). I understand that these are likely very low priorities in the big picture of developing and polishing this title. |
Interesting I'm getting better performances in "full screen" mode now than "pseudo".. anyone seen the difference ?

I agree that the 109 cockpit looks too contrasted. http://www.escuadrillasazules.es/com...s/afdn_415.gif

Thanks for the heads up..appreciate it much! |
I just tried this latest beta guys...wtg. I was a little apprehensive with all the haters in this thread complaining, but the game is looking really good. The colors are really looking awesome. Just about perfect on my end
Also, anybody complaining about the cockpits is out of their f'ing minds 109 flyby sounds are EPIC! My video test is here: http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...postcount=1259 |
Colours look better in this update patched version.
Contrast is better. Haze is better, can see aircraft at distance now. I would suggest lowering the haze a tad more or have levels like like cloud assignable in FMB. Sometimes there is little haze, or moisture from humidity, other times there is alot. Part of weather and should be tunable. I would suggest taking a little Red out of the dark grey, a click or two. The darker dash board (109) can look a little red. Unless this is correct of course, depends if the dash wasn't pure grey or not. Maybe the dash lights are bleeding through the intire dashboard, so maybe check that. I see the "red out" bug, some areas are full black, possibly linked to a particular colour or shading. A bug (I have had this from default) where I lose USB controls periodically, the usb connections drop from time to time.(I hear the windows system disconnect sound as per unplug) This only happens in CLOD, so that is the isolation. I have tried powered usb hubs etc, but same effect. Typically I lose an older style USB to RS232 which drives my rudder. I also periodically lose my TIR3, (plus TIRclip for 6DOF) If I refly in an online run server I can obtain the controls back. I note my comments about colour and contrast are from a fully calibrated system. I run a Video calibration service for high end video and calibrate PC's aswell. Others who comment about colours, contrast should calibrate their monitors and video systems before commenting about colour or contrast. The built in windows system is not good enough, it requires software and measurement device. Dell T1500 Win7 x64 8gb ram Nvidia 460 |

I agree with MegOhm- Lots o' claptrap about the beta on the forum. I am running stable with an OC'd Crossfire setup and overclocked CPU. Without the boost, I would probably be running a couple frames slower than the previous official patch. Most settings medium-high. except for trees at low. Generally around 60fps, have to have vsync on though. The odd lockup, usually just a force quit to the desktop, as opposed to a full reboot. buzzard Win 7 64 bit AMD Phenom II 3.4 OC to 3.73 8 GB GSkill RAM 5830 Crossfire, OC to 950/1300 |
Is there anti aliasing yet?

There's a lot more that needs tweaking than the cockpit colour ( which is fine ) How about a proper quick mission editor like in 1946 where you can just choose opposing planes and fly ? The one in this sim are too limited .
