Performance Poll BETA PATCH v1.06.17582

[KeBrAnTo]

Same settings, 20% less fps, ctd, low resolution textures here after patch. - ironic mode on - Great improvement - ironic mode off-
As other pointed at before, starting to think this is going nowhere.

If I was a programmer rewriting a whole new engine at speed I can imagine making a few mistakes here and there. Identifying what might be simple revisions and getting them out of the way will reduce complaints about easy to fix bugs. Something the community feedback can do better and faster than their own in-house testing can do I suspect. I see the development being positive for now. Lets hope the clouds come back. Nothing like a cloud scene in the sunset. 1946 is even good for that.

My specs:
E8400 3GHz
4GB DDR2
GTX460- 1GB (beta drivers that brought in fxaa though that is off)

Performance: Improved. Steady 60fps over sea, no microstutters. When other aircraft are involved I get 40fps, maybe down to 30 at very heavy times. Less good online, but got 40fps with 80 players on ATAG. I turn mirrors off and gain 5-10fps always.

CTD: Got a few online when I first started it when my aircraft was spawining/despawning I think- it was after a crash landing. Had one or two offline which I never had before.

Visuals: Some blurriness as reported. RPM counter in blenheim is a blur. Blenheim engines are better (need to learn to use them though!). Fog/haze seems increased- loaded up free flight channel and can't see either coast (maybe accurate- when on a ferry you get to a point over the channel where you can see either coast, but a a/c is higher)

S!

For me better, the average FPS went up in tracks a lot. Maximums also. The overall feel is smoother and seems AA works to some extent better than before. Definitely waiting for more testing and the final version. Things are on the right track now.

I noticed the performance increase in my average FPS, that was the telling stat for me. Make sure you follow the steps people have been suggesting for a clean install, and remember, its an Alpha release of a Beta patch.... we begged for it, if you dont like it, you can roll back till its a more stable release.
