Nice job with this new patch, flying on London is possible now, even with detail maxed out, 27 fps. No problems about fps in other situations, flying smooth with about 50 planes. i7 870, gtx 570.

Better overall. Now I'm back to native resolution. Over ground still no playable for me. Al tho I have 30-40 FPS over sea, I still haven't got feeling of smooth flying. Black line over sea remains.

Now its playable at 1920x1200,medium-high settings 2xaa.Still a bit of stuttering at first but after a few seconds its like 90% gone.Getting steady 30-35fps sometimes a bit more.FPS on the ground have improved significantly, before even panning the camera was laggy, now it runs a lot more smoother.Still getting some weird sound bugs, mg fire sounds fade off most of the time.Getting notifications that are occurring on my desktop on top of the game even while running it full screen( email notifications and such).Overall I saw a big improvement, a few more patches and it should be right on its tracks.This patch returned my hope.

Reposted from patch thread:

Steam patch downloaded without issue. Seeing a decent improvement in FPS (at least +10/15 more than before) which makes the game a lot better.

Still seeing the heavy stuttering however, both at loadup (initially for 10-15 seconds once in the cockpit) and throughout the flight, especially when flying low over buildings. The stutter is better, definitely, and a little loadup stutter is to be expected - but it's still very much there. Seems worst while loading models at closer ranges, buildings/trees are loading in well below the 8 kilometre draw distance (think I read 8km somewhere here..)... and that seems to cause the stutter.

I also have more microfreezes and stutters than before or at least the same amount. All settings on medium, grass, shadows and roads on. Turning grass and shadows off did not help either. I even get tiny stutters low over the channel. Over land the sim is not playable for me.

Much better with patch on my modest setup, on own over sea can have shadows on and runs well, not so good with a few planes but better when shadows off. Land much better but even with lowest ground settings game jumps occasionally but is atleast somewhat playable, which was not the case previously! Keep up the good work! :grin:

I use the bomber intercept over London as the worst case for my testing and I'm happy to see it is now playable. Before patch, I was single digit fps to low teens, with a big stutter when closing on bombers.

Now, with higher settings, I'm a shade about 18 fps. I'm sure if I turned down a few settings (that I honestly don't need with a bomber in my sights) it would be better again.

Tested clouds and mirror out at sea so no other factors involved. Very good fps, but mirror takes 10 fps or so, as does medium clouds, but still have 30 fps so again, playable.

Stutters still appear at the start of a flight, London being the worst, but thereafter are gone, or in London's case, less frequent and much better.

Settings:
High: Model detail, Damage Decal, Visual effects
Medium: Building detail, Land detail, Forest
Low: Building amount, Land shading
Shadows: on
Grass, Roads: off
AA 4x

Personal verdict: a good step forward

Beta? :-P

Installed fine. Performance is on par with the beta patch, so not much to say.

The desktop v's ingame resolution problem is fixed though, yay.

Still get stutters with buildings which increase the closer you are to them.

1920x1200, all settings max, except building detail/amount lowest and tree's on high.. no AA. FPS vary between 25-70FPS, lowest probably around 15FPS.
