Development Update and Roadmap – April 14

[JG52Uther]

Well the No ssao mod and low tex mod seriously improved my games performance,fps wise.
For safetys sake I will remove them,as I don't want to risk a ban,but will be very disappointed if the 'official' fixes are not as efficient.

You may not be too bright, and have no knowledge how various checks are made within code to check for cheats, however, internally a change to a texture for whatever reason is still a change to a texture, and unless checked manually will trigger bans in vac as has been the case in the past, sanctimonious ahole.

As I already pointed out, it won't affect me as I refuse to bother with the title until ffb is added, I was just trying to clarify what was said to prevent others being affected by vac bans, that permanently ban users from all steam titles.

well sadly for you, you're poor attempt at clearing something up (and what follow up post?), which was quite clear before your poor attempt, was cleared up...

as for the rest of your diatribe, blow it out your nose

Some people seem to have missed this.

Can we add FFB to the roadmap, please. Kind of a dealbreaker for many of us.

Thank you Luthier for the update. There is nothing more important at this point than keeping us all informed and letting us know what's in the pipeline. I don't speak for everyone but I certainly HUGELY appreciate the updates and knowledge of what you guys are working on. For me the only issue that is a deal-killer is performance. I know for sure that everything will be resolved eventually (SLI, FFB, sounds etc.) but the core performance of the game simply MUST be there.

THANKS AGAIN!

Is the issue of the sim not running in a proper full-screen been addressed with this patch?
Little point in pushing down the accelerator if the engine's still not in gear...

This is a silly question I'm sure, but does this forthcoming ban apply to things like the 'less annoying' text improvement and gb campaign fixes currently stickied at this forum?
