Actually I don't see any image degration in flight with SSAO off, so I disabled it.

Just some feedback re frame-rates:

Pre-patch 1.06.17582 - avr 45; max 114; min 5

Post-patch 1.06.17582 - avr 59; max 165; min 5

Post-new core.dll - avr 57: max 175; min 4

Post-patch 1.07.18301 - avr 40: max 115: min 5

Conclusion: reduction in avr & max framerates with latest patch.

Right. Only bottom of aircraft is usually influenced and it is not visible from the cockpit.

Lower framerate for me as well. Love the new tracers. Lowered trees to very low and turned grass on and off and didnt seem to have much of an effect on my Framerates. If I had to guess, I would say I was getting high teen to Low 20ish FPS. Was probably in the High 20s to low 30s before. Stuttering was a little worse close to the ground.

My FPS were probably lower as well, but honestly it seemed smoother, they dont seem to be jumping around as much as before.

I'm surprised nobodys mentioned the "Ground Control->Request Targets" radio message.

I assume it was introduced in this patch!

Has anyone found any of the other commands working?


Cool!

It was present before. The indications online are quite vague, like "bombers go 30 km heading 320", but from where ?

Thanks for the clarification. I'ld never seen it before and hadn't heard anyone talk about it.

Cheers!

Heading 320 is the heading from your position. So if you set course to 320 you should fly towards them. Of course as you fly along so do the bombers in an unknown direction, so ask again after a while.
