* Flak is great, you feel the blast, it moves your plane. I got shot down by bullets from a ship, but the flak damaged a Bf 109 that I was chasing, he started smoking.

* no cockpit view for BF 10's or fw 190's
- p-51D-5 cockpit was not fixed (still has p-47)

*P-51 now flies better than the bf 109 (you can really notice this in turns)
* Fw 190 was slightly fixed, I think the p-51 turns a little better, and the gun platform way more stable than fw 190.

* blackouts are good, I have not gotten completely balcked out, but blackouts are there on both cockpit and virtual views (this is good news for me)

* I will try red outs, and machine and cannon separation in a bit.

(any other requests for things that I may check?)
I can definately say that the screen tearing is NOT FIXED unfornately. Maybe I'm being picky as it was the single most needed aspect to warrant attention IMO. Curiously it doesn't tear now until a few minutes into a flight, then it's easily as bad as it was.

Although personally disappointed by this, the custom layouts, flak, black & redouts are great. A worthy effort in need of praise & worth the wait!!!!

If resulting framerate is less, than 30, V-sync automatically toggles off (than coming on back again). This was made to make MP dynamics as fast, as possibly.
However, in title update framerate is also improved, most of times - at least +15-20%

That would explain the intermitent tearing I'm experiencing. Very well done on the rest of the 1.01. Great work.

Haven't tried a mouse but 1 thing I noticed, when in cockpit view sim mode if you use the d-pad to look it no longer looks at the outside of your plane instead it pans from the inside!

I will try my new multi touch apple mouse it is bluetooth.

EDIT: Sweet even the apple mouse works. Left click and you can look everywhere, let off the button and view returns to center. Killer.

HELL YES!!! OMG that's awesome! Target tracking just got a whole lot easier. How's the deadzone?

Hi Anton, Could you clarify that the HOTAS hatswitch will not let you check behind you? If so I need to start practising with the pad... Thanks.
