Benchmarks for the beta sound encouraging. Wasn't there plans to release the beta for public testing?

Good results on the optimising the graphic engine of the game. Well done team. The PC used for testing is even a bit slower than mine. Nice. Any info on the fixing memory leak and the fix for slowdowns (drop of FPS) when effects are near (dust, fire etc.)?

Excellent, thank you for the update all.

Ref reflections, they are very visible on exposed metal on well worn planes, just not at all visible on paint.

Impressive fps increase too, well over the 50%! can only echo the post that I hope stutter is eliminated and that it still looks the same as previously stated

You can't see a reflection on matte but it didn't stop it shinning that's what's missing/needs work

i for one would also like to see some heads up on the memory leak and disappearing dots (ghost planes are making multiplayer verging on edge of unplayable at least for me); else is good to know, but i'll save my judgement over the FPS increase until i see it myself. as others pointed out, stutters are the main issue...

and no word on the flight characteristics revision ??? we'll bear with the super rotol hurricane, pitty MkI and meh 109s like forever?... again good to know you're at it, but this issue is a MUST. i dare not elaborate, fear the mods...

B6, can you ask Ilja to run the blackdeath track with the new graphic engine and post min., average and max. frame rates by highest setting and resolution?

I think that would be more comparable than only average.

And thanks for the little update.

Even with matte paint at very tangent angles the material becomes reflective.
Here you have some images where this effect its clearly visible. It helps a lot to give a photo feeling to the image and material:







Here you can see a full reflection under the wing. Also in aircraft in the background you can see reflections and direct sun shining.


Etc...
Even more, at right angles even mate paint shines a lot. Without that matte it simply become blinding and even blinding when reflecting the sun.

but this has been discussed a lot.

You do know that warbirds today are painted with gloss coats....nothing like the matt used in service.
