Sooo ... let's recap my experience today, after few hours on ATAG:

- fps: no increase on my machine, but they were already ok. Avg is around 28-30.
- stutter: no stutter or very very rare before; I have frequent 1 sec freezes now. Someone says that it's when a new custom skin is loaded. I cannot verify this. I had those freezes seldom also when in dogfight.
- CTD: never had one after the patch, vs. around one every 1h to 2 hours before.
- graphics: no comment as the devs have disables some gfx features for this beta. Anyway I was surprised to see that the trees shadows shimmering is sill there, despite the new gfx engine. Promised or not ...
- FM's: didn't try the red planes. The 109 seemed to climb better at high alt. The G.50 is now playable, despite the initial heating time is still very long. Once my 109 entered in an unrecoverable spin, lwhere before it was nearly impossible to spin. No change on the 110 as far as I can tell.
- sound: the only big issue before was that pesky sound radar, and it is still there. I didn't try the new Merlins. Breda Safats had a nice sound.
- ground explosions: I've noticed a shock wave on ground explosions which I'm not sure was there before. Nice.
- misc: the canopy doesn't get wet in the clouds anymore on the 109, while it still does on the G.50. Weird.

Cheers,
