I can live with the new cockpit colours, but please for the love of all that is holy (lol) do not make this landscape final, it is a step back from previous beta IMO, too garish in parts. That neon craziness is creeping in again. The previous landscape was getting close to nailing the English landscape.

Keep on keeping on, and good luck.

Couldn't have put it better myself. Agree on all counts. Once I've installed the hotfix, testing is to be resumed.

Looking forward to testing the airspeed improvements. Anyone tested altitude yet?

Well, I am impressed.

Don't know if it was putting the patch over a fresh install or checking the config files as Luthier put on with the added info and the hotfix (although the entries were all as should be).

Now the game is back to being very playable. Maybe a very slight drop in FPS but certainly nothing like the disaster I had last night!!

SOunds are excellent, new colours are a matter of taste but I like them so far (only been flying Spits and Hurris).

Did notine that the props no loger disappear when viewed in front of clouds now too

Heading in the right direction, now if we could only communicate with out wingmen/flight/ground control/section control.......

Cheers

I think I have to agree too that landscape colors from 1.03.15527 were better than the ones from 1.04.5866, excepting the haze, which seems to be better in the new one (ie lighter applied on close terrain, and heavier applied on the distant one).

Also, from my obeservations, the FPS seems to be better on both my laptop with an ATI card, and desktop with an Nvidia one.

To me this was trying to fix somthing that wasn't broken. Im sticking with the first patch.
