I've only had a quick fly .. in one of the new 109s and once in a spit. So far I am very impressed, well done team, it seems a great improvement. Love the new sounds and the great new graphical look.

There are several additional squad commands seemingly available. I have not tested them in any detail but many seem to still not work yet? ...I ordered my squad to RTB but they still stayed in formation, at least this time however, they did not follow me into the ground and crash when I landed...as they approached the ground, they all zoomed up and flew off...definitely an improvement in that regard! lol.

Anyway, I did not really test that in any depth, so it may have been me not using the commands correctly, we'll see.

I cant wait to really test it all over the weekend.



Well done guys, thanks for the continued support. Looking forward to the future with this sim.

S!

Quick test. Black death and cross-country with a SpitI.

Sounds are great but static. Open/close canopy = same sound. When parachute the sound is still there.

Love the .303 sound.

I've lost an average of 5 fps with this patch. I will have to lower settings to be able to fly. Stutter still there. Friggin sux.

Going back in for more testing. Man, I feel down. My fps are on the edge and this patch..feck!!

Make sure you defrag game files after installation.

Very nice patch for me. FPS seem about the same but it 'feels' smoother. Really like the landscape and sounds.

I hope they fix the AI F16 rolling capabilities soon!!

Looking good though. Many thanks Luthier and team Keep it up guys

Definately like it. As Chocs said, it seems smoother now. Plus that the E4 is a dream to fly.

I cleared the cache but don't dare to defrag as I'm on OSX with W7 on Boot Camp. Pretty sure a defrag in either os would mess with the other one.

Still robbed of 5 fps avg. Gonna do a reinstall before I go the "feck this game" route.

I like the looks of everything (and the sounds are nice too).

I am getting ~8-10 fps less and more micro stutters when flying low.

I cleared cache and defragged game directory and fps drop/stutter remains.

I'm still getting blocky water (nVidia 430 GPU) other than that it all looks great, I assume performance will probably increase over time as code is optimized.
