I think there is really poor memory management or similar.

My rig

i7 3,5Ghz
Ati Radeon 5970 (Crossfire card)
6 gig DDR
Win 7 64Bit

I mean there is constant swapping on my harddrive, even on min settings.

So cure is not buy powerful PC because swapping is only thing what takes my FPS low, i can even play it highest setting but that stuttering is that kills it. My HD is loading all the time mostly, so there is no memory free.

Seem to be loading textures too slowly too. i you go to checking those planes in the cipilopedia or similar, there is big latency when textures is loaded on the plane.

Of course these are my opinions, i don't know nothing about coding but this is what i think is broken. Better memory optimisation or similar.

Game is great but unplayable at this state

AA Not working properly

Ive tried every setting off to 8X and 8X bring some AA but not what would be considered smooth, I can see a lot of shimmering in the distance and this can make picking out a target quite hard, Ive tried all the drivers below and also setting AA and AF in the Nvidia CP (which makes no difference) -

260.99
263.09
266.58
267.91
270.51

Specs -

Intel i7 950 @4.0Ghz
Pailt GTX460 (overclocked and standard clocks tried)
6Gb XMS3
Win 7 X64

Settings for individual planes over options/planes via the main screen (I haven't yet found another way to change plane settings than via this path) are not used in quick missions.

I have similar issues when in quick mission for choosing the load out.

I saved a particular loadout under a certain name "Angepasst" (=customized or adapted) and it sometimes shows for the particular plane in the quick mission setting screen. I select it without any effect on the load out.

Also saving the load out in a different name: it cannot be selected in the quick mission setting screen as it does not appear in the drop down list of the particular plane

Sometimes this plane only has "empty" load out shown in the drop down list.

I want to emphasize that I did take care that in quick mission it was the same plane as that for which I changed the load out (and paint scheme settings btw).

Also paint scheme settings don't have an impact on what is used during quick mission ...

Default uber me109 frightened the daylights outta me!

I set up a quick high altitude dogfight (using FMB) over Hawkinge, with the spitfires in the dogfight set to land at Hawkinge when they were done.

I ran out of ammo early on, so landed and taxied inside a hangar and watched the melee. After quite some time, a few aircraft were dogfighting at very low altitude (all below 3000 feet). When reduced to 1 ME109 and a handful of spits, the spitfires chose to land, and the 109 decided to strafe the spits on the open airfield, which it did with ease.

It then turned its wrathful attention to those spits that had huddled inside the safety of the hangars (including me). It started its attack dive, and when about 2000 feet up, on a dive angle of about 30 to 40 degrees, it started firing at one of the spits poking out of the hangar. As soon as it started firing, it stopped/hovered in mid-air, still firing, as it took its time to riddle the spit and set it on fire. It was like an () end of level boss, and frighteningly awesome in its ability to bend time, gravity and space to its own will.

Just to prove its own skill, it did it again, this time firing at a spit that was fully protected by the hangar, but the uber-BF tried to shoot out the hangar windows! I was truly scared (and hid under my spit!) It was like something out of Doctor Who.

My system is a core2 quad Q6600 (2.4 GHz), with 4GB ram, 64 bit windows 7 OS, and geforce GTX460 graphics card.

How did the Germans lose the battle with such amazing pilots and/or planes??

Sometimes, the sound of rolling gear remains during the flight.

Here is a video to show you this bug.

Hi, firstly the game runs beautifully and is excellent

I noticed too stars through the cockpit dash
Major bug for me is when flying online over direct connect which took me several hours to resolve is I cannot hear other peoples aircraft. No sound what so ever other than my own.

PC
Win 7 64bit
Soundblaster X-FI Extreme
4GB DDR3 1600
ATI XFX 5850 Black (765) Zaba
I5 Quad 3.04Ghz

With trees and building low I can run full settings and works well.

Not sure if anyone else caught this, but the animation for the radiator in the hurrie is backwards: when you open the rad it closes graphically, and vice verse. It physically works fine though.
