I've had sound issues like these since a couple patches ago and i can confirm it happens. I mostly get it on twins (eg, Blenheim, Ju8, there is no sound until i increase RPMs a little bit more.

About the throttle though, i don't see anything bugged. I just flew the stock cross country mission to test it.

The throttle moves correctly all across the range.

The mixture and prop pitch are the ones that have only two positions but that is historically correct. The Blenheim had two-position props (like the Spit 1 and the DH Hurricane we have in the sim), so it only has fine and coarse settings. It also had only two effective mixture settings, auto-rich and auto-lean, even though the lever moved all across the range the lower 50% was auto-rich and the upper 50% of the lever's travel was auto-lean.

To sum up, it was wrong before the patch, it is corrected now. Cheers

Inaccurate and faulty instrument readings like these were there in previous versions too. It's not a bug, it simulates icing of the pitot tube.

Turn on your pitot heater and you'll see it indicating correctly again

I very much doubt its a bug.

Good feature, I like it...seems to clog a bit quickly though, I don't really remember the previous vershion as drastic

Correct, though why your cockpit glass would ice up at 500m in British summer is something for another thread.

Here's that bug with the reticle. Still not fixed:

Anyone notice FPS drops when there is communication during single player? And maybe its me, but it seems worse when reporting enemy positions?

Also before patch I used to CTD sometimes when loading a track, now, so far, I have yet to have that happen, good thing!

If this was really a problem with ATI, then this bug would show up in AC-10, Black Shark, Flaming Cliffs 2 or even Call of Duty.
But in these games, and in any other games there are no problems, so I think it's NOT ATI's fault.
Fix it. I didn't hand out money to watch such a zebra-striped ***...

I didn't mean it was ATI's fault, but the problem lies with ATI cards in CLoD. It's either CLoD's fault or ATI's, but neither have offered a fix yet.
