well then youd be 100% wrong when they supposedly have done all that testing and then turn out the patch and well read the threads.

i make mistakes but that's what testing is for what they kept saying was why it was taking so long

I did testing for TD during this most recent patch. At no point during the beta did I ever experience any instability at all. It was just as stable as IL-2 normally is. Something minor happened after the final test build that is causing this crash to desktop issue (I've experienced it with 4.11 final too).

The long testing has a lot to do with a totally new AI package and while it was working quite well from the beta and alpha builds I used... it came a long way and is quite a bit better than it was during those early tests. A matter of refinement rather than some show stopping problems.

Thanks TD - you guys are the best.

[major_setback]

Thanks for all the hard word the team have put into this!
It is very much appreciated.

I concur with what IceFire said. I never had one CTD during the entire beta test process.

Not one.

Any link to a working torrent file? The one posted wont work for me.

Just a thought with all the new changes and the overheating, maybe its time for a players guide to the rpm prop pitch powerband by major subtypes? I guess the old pitch within 5% of throttle is still a good guide, or should we be messing with pitch at all if using a constant speed prop??

[JtD]

Yes, that's still a good guide and you definitely need to work pitch with a CSP.

I flew online on HL on a summer map. I choose a FW 190 D9. I used its WEP (don't know the german title for it) only at takeoff with 100% power until I reached 2000 altitude then I switched it off. I noticed that during my ascending to 2000 m the indicator of the oil temperature gauge was steadily increasing. After I switched off WEP the oil temperature indicator was decreasing and stabilizing to normal. I was flying most of the time with my WEP off and noticed that I don't need it as much as I used to use it on 4.10.1 patch. With WEP off I haven't encountered anymore any kind of overheating.
Another remark: in a dive I felt like the D9 is more stable at higher speeds and recovering from a dive is much easier, smoother not having too much chance to break your wings off. Generally I like the improvements made to the game with this patch! ~S~
