Yup! Explosions freeze/crash the game. Aren't betas supposed to be improvements from earlier versions? LOL! Already looking forward to the retail patch, that'll be a hoot.

Yup! Explosions freeze/crash the game.

Confirm addman, had 3 crashes already, 2 explosion related, one just flying about in a FMB 4 vs 4 dogfight I made. First impression of the colours is frikkin awful.....if these are final then I think I'm going to cry. 'RETURN TO PLANET SHREK'.

Confirm E4 radiator bug, will not overheat either. How did they miss that? Glad the reflector sights range is sorted now though.

I'll have to find out how to post the crash log thing, will do so in time.

Already had two crashes. The game freezes but sound continues to be played ... No crash dump files are generated and I need to shut down CloD via TaskManager.

Same here. The last time it froze when a plane exploded next to me. Aircraft in the middle of a huge fireball. No dump file, i have to kill the process via Taskmanager

Confirm Thor and Tom, had to kill with Task Manager and no crash dump files either.

[Bewolf]

Hmmmm

two missions, two crashes so far, in both cases had to quit via task manager.

can't really comment on anything else yet.

[VO101_Tom]

No crash, since i switch off the EFFECTS in video menu...

[Zappatime]

Crashes when there's a ground-hit fireball explosion (not when anything crashes into sea). Reproducable with Black Death track at point of bomb impact with taking off Hurricane, would appear to be the fireball graphic that triggers the lock-up.

No crashdump file created, requires taskmanager to get out, sound continues after crash.

While its running (up to a ground crash) there seems to be more stuttering for me than 1st beta and still a big fps hit in clouds.

Using nvidia beta driver 285.38 with vsync and SSAO all settings high.

• The game also freezes for me when a plane crashes. I've only ran FMB missions with just me in a single plane and as soon as I crash into either terrain or a building the game will lock up and the sound will loop. No crash log is generated. Cleared the cache, but did not revert Steam install back to original before applying patch. I just pasted it over the previous beta patch.
  
  
• The blue horizon line bug is still there. Not sure if its AMD cards only or Nvidia as well. I can see it with my HD6970 using official Cat 11.9 driver.
  
  
• The Tiger Moth sound is still really spluttery and poppy when starting up cold. I understand because its a cold engine but it really needs a warming up sound to help blend in the engine splutter sounds because at the moment all you hear are pops when it warms up and no engine running sound at all.
  
  
• Mirrors are still bugged / useless. They should be removed from the game or disabled by default.
  
  
• Some buildings sometimes don't show even on max settings. Normally its on the edge of the towns, you can see them painted on the terrain but no model appears.
  
  
• The lead (new addition?) going into the Bf-109E-3 throttle goes through an obvious level of detail change near 80% power.
