Thanks for this update Ilya and a special thanks to the Team behind you.
I am very happy that you going to use '4 cores' for splitting texture out in the next update.

I have been getting into the FMB more and more and have produced some excellent trial missions using the object file. I am very impressed with the effort that has gone into the existing ground objects, particularly 'Foo'bars' steam engines, artillery pieces etc..

Upgrading my system to Windows 7 64 bit has made a big difference, so looking forward to the sim using additional cores. I still have to get 'ATI Catylist' running properly, so any thoughts on this from members, would be appreciated.

I am starting to get a 'good handle' on the Hurricane, Spitfire and Messerschmitt, flying with 'working cockpit's'. I have 'set-up' some excellent 'dogfight' mission scenario's which are challenging to fly. (will try and post some soon) Also enjoying using the AI aircraft effectively in some of the missions. I particularly like the Dorniers.

I hope you can get the 'full weather package' working soon?

AMD AthlonII x3 here too. Usually 3 cores is a sweetspot for gaming since very few games utilizes all 4 cores in a x4 setup. But I'm confident they'll not forget about us 3-legged ones

Awesome good to hear that a hardline will be taken against cheaters, thanks for the update

The texture performance increase for 4 core CPUs, what kind of performance increase is it I.e. Fps, stuttering?

Stuttering. It's similar to the no-mipmap mod, except it's more efficient and does not affect visual quality.
