Ditto on all counts. Locks up as the bomb explodes on the runway as the Hurri is taking off.

What do you type in again to get the frame rate?

Well I put it into the first line for people like you who don't know how to do that, thanks for reading.

Other then that, playing SP just over the channel doing some manoeuvres is really fluent and an average of 38 FPS, no stutters/spikes. I have to revise my opinion on the colours, I Prefer them over the older ones, especially the colour of the sea is now really good. New sounds are awesome, I can my airframe crying as I abuse her

No performance improvements for me over last beta but not sure if they were optimising since the last patch. No crashes as yet though.

I was hoping they'd tone down the sun glare effect as I need a fire extinguisher to put my retina out now! I also feel there's still too much haze.

I just set up a dogfight and was flying a 109E3. I managed to get behind a Hurricane and blow his aileron off with a cannon shot. He proceeded to outmaneuvre me in every way possible and escaped by out rolling, diving, and turning me! AI/flight/damage models still borked so back on the shelf for me until they address this.

I'll fly around for another hour or so and report anything out of the ordinary.

EDIT:- I was running at around 35-45fps at 2560x1440 res but it was fairly smooth. with the new patch it seems capped at 35fps. Just out of curiosity I changed res to 1920x1080...the result - still 35fps with or without V sync.

Yes and no, the graphics are yet again improved, and I believe somewhat smoother as well, but it locks up when a bomb hits the ground, not the sea, just the ground. So no bombing, which is a shame, I just got all 32 of my bombs from 4000 meters straight onto the English radars, until some exploded and the game locked up. ( Thanks Luthier for improved level bombing, much appreciated! )

I could live with that, they are a bit too dark when the sun isn't shining on the instruments, and they become really hard to read, especially Ju-88.
