Priority bugs & other issues that need to be looked into

[Orpheus]

Spitfire 1 & 1a FM's still way out of sync with Spitfire II. Both the 1 & 1a have far too low cruising speeds at coarse propeller pitch.

Shadows from clouds/explosions and similar effects have awful flickering.

Plus the usual 'increase performance' stuff. Stutter is far worse with the latest retail patch.

Some of the smoke effects in FMB seem to have nuclear furnaces at their heart, although I'm not sure if this is a bug or a card thing. See screenshot.

Found something weird...

In the BR.20M bombsight, the altitude settings can only go as far as 2800 meters.
You can't bomb at higher alt than that...
Also, it seems almost impossible to open the bomb bay.

No you don't. Not until we get the Rotol Spit

That's a VOTE btw.

S!

Well, testing the latest patch inside out regarding performance..and this applies to all previous ones as well..is that the devs need to take a serious look into the shadows and SSAO implementation + the mirrors issue in planes. Those 3 kill most of FPS on my system. In this order from most to least effect: Shadows, SSAO, Mirrors. SSAO and mirrors are very close to eachother, around 10-25fps. But shadows give 20-40fps more if OFF! IL-2 had shadows and they NEVER caused such impact than these flickering things we have.

So it seems the code needs a lot of work..

sound system breaks down with more than 10 aircraft or is it more than freeman.

I think they work correctly in regards to FM and it's just the animation that's somewhat toned down. In other words, they seem to extend less and with greater difficulty while they are in fact not, a mismatch between visuals and FM.

At least that's what i remember reading on this forum after a few people tested it and reported back with their findings.

FIAT G.50, ammocounters dont work

If there would be visuals for slat deployment, would you they are modeled in the FM? I am just curiuos and would guess that it would depend mainly on the AoA and the IAS, when the slats pop out. So a High AoA turn at low speeds should lead to a higher rate of turn, with slats, than without, but more drag and would give you low minium landing speed? I would gues to check the minimum flight speed is the easiest way to find out if the slats are modelled or not?
