Industrial complex screen lockup.
 

Somewhere in Rouen, strafing gas-storage tanks in an industrial complex, after a couple of runs and blowing some up the screen froze. FPS down from avg of 32fps over regular buildings in Rouen to avg 18fps looking at the industrial complex. The plane kept running and eventually crashed (I could still hear it). I alt-tabbed out, back to a menu-screen but no cursor. I had to use ctrl-alt-del to get back to desktop, which was at the game's rez of 1920x1200 instead of my setting of 2560x1600. Rebooted the PC to clear it.

This was the second time, the first was at some distance from a complex while flying an He111 up the Thames estuary just by looking towards it (about ten miles distance).

Before the current beta patch bombing a fuel storage tank would result in an apocalyptic explosion that levelled half a city and FPS dropping from 30 to 1 frame every 4-5 seconds on my system.

With the current patch FPS still drop but nowhere near as badly as before.

Locked up again, this time with no industry anywhere near. GPU and CPU temps all normal. Game continued running behind the frozen image. :confused:
