BETA PATCH v.1.08.18956 - August 3, 2012

[Richie]

Works fine.....Like always.

Can copy this, did a perfect bombrun on ATAG with a He 111 in 3700m. Hit 2 Spitfires on runway.... but the gyrocompass seems to be massively bugged now.
Did you notice that the spitfire guns are now nearly inaudible with canopy open? Whereas you can hear them damped with canopy closed? was it allready in the recent beta? Nevermind it sounds pretty realistic!!
No crashes or whatsoever... allthough I dont have crashes since the last beta
Performance seems to be improved as well, quite happy so far.

FPS didn't change much (it was already great) but I count far less stutters as long as I don't set textures to original. Time to buy a 2GB card

I don't like how tracers look on medium effects setting.
Still, medium instead of high cleared up almost all stutters, making the black death track very smooth, especially when all the bombs go off.

Will check the FM later on.

Looks like good progress overall.

Apologies if this has been posted prior but I haven't found it..

Never mind....used 7-Zip to extract file to game Steamapps folder and patch installed successfully.

After all the Hullabaloo I'm surprised nobodys mentioned that the Hurricane works!

Cheers and thanks!

Time to log a few hours!

edit - Sorry Dano! Missed your post.

Hi All

Report of the test on my system.

This one makes me remember the last official patch, that's good, because was the last playble.

Good FPS, and the CTD's after quit SP & MP missions had gonne.

But, the some problems remain rigth from the begin. The visual options menu don't work or is mistake (I have to exit the game and enter again to change make effect).

Stuttening, same as the last oficial patch ( thats must better than the last pair of beta pacth). But I think that's understable, a very big map with tonnes of detail loaded on a few seconds. So it keep loading objects as you fly. A good turn around here is to set trees to very low and I always use building set to Unlimited, seems less popon loading, so less stuttening.

Remains impossible to collide with the trees.

Didn't try MP yet.

Regards

Which He-111? The P or the H? The reason i'm asking is that the compass graphics in the He-111P have been reversed for quite some time now, while the H was working just fine.

I tried it in the 88 and even though i did a very sloppy run because i was in a hurry to go bar crawling with friends ( ), i'd say doing it by the book works ok.

P.S. Just saw you did your share of testing and you also deduct it works. Good times ahead

Does anyone know if this patch gives support to DX9? As it turns out, my laptop can't do the more modern DX's on this game, so I had to reduce to DX9, and usually got around 10-15fps.

Don't want to reinstall the whole thing in vain

Thanks!
