Ahh, you are quite wrong, there's a fluid filled gauge, similar to a thermometer, that's clearly marked "Artificial Horizon". It only measures pitch, not roll, left center in the rear cockpit. Give it a try.

Please if you don't have any first hand knowledge, and you don't know what you're talking about, refrain from posting.

How many hours do you have in a real Tiger moth?

Cause i know Bongo has quite a few.

Cleared my cache.

Launched from steam. Starts up with a black screen with a red oblong at the centre. Thought the install was fubar but the game ran after about 30 seconds.

Confirmed the game was patched, right install nr.

The results are clearly much better for me. After taking up a Spit against 6 He-111s in the quick missions it was quickly apparent that the patch had significantly improved things for my system, I appear to have AA as well, although it seems to be much better for the cockpit (window frames are really smooth now, no jaggies) than for distant aircraft. Up close enemy bombers now are now visually very smooth. I don't get stutters caused by particles now where as pre-patch me diving into a formation of 6 He-111s with defensive fire rattling my windows would've been a bit of a slide show, but there are still some stutters that don't really seem to be clearly associated with anything.

My system is:

Q6600, 4gb RAM, GT9800 1gb, Vista32.

Thanks for the patch luthier and Co.

Gained an extra 10 fps (runnin nicely at 40 )higher average offline with everything on med or high with the expections of: land shading, SSAO on low - clouds, grass, shadows vsync, AA Ep filter off.

I aint been able to have a good run today, so hopefully tomorrow i have a bit more of a run, but so far -

Gettin the red box on startup where the crosshair logo is supposed to be.

Some hoses in the 109, hurr are now windows.

Online (only tried ATAG server) i have found 2 problems.
1st - When i spawn on the runway, the game completely freezes, i have to shutdown via task manager.

2nd - When i enter the lobby of a server i sometimes receive a runtime error and game shuts down.

Im thinking these two problems are machine specific, and will be reinstalling the game tomorrow to test a fresh copy, just thought it might be worth a mention in case someone else has the same prob

Prepatch the game went up twice in FPS and I was able to play on all HIGH settings and the game was smoother than ever! A real beauty!

Now after the patch these are my results (flying the 109 only)

1. Slightly more stutter when close to the ground (used to be smooth)

2. Trees seem to flicker more

3. Gunsight reticle in the 109 is low res

4. External Sounds are terrible, when canopy CLOSED while on the ground, I cant hear the plane next to me even if he is just a few meters away. When canopy OPENS I can here hear them just like pre patch (this might be a way of getting rid of the "sonar sounds")

5. Some sounds are gone. I cant hear my gears retracting, and when I get hit I dont hear any hitsounds. I just see the "fail message"
6. Flyby sounds of the 109 is changed to the worse. It used to be the sound of the beautiful Daimler Benz but now there is an additional sound (sounds like the external sounds of the Merlins have been added ontop of the 109s sound.

7. In cockpit, some instruments have gone low res and blury unless you zoom in really close.

These are the bugs I can remember now...
I see that some others have simliar bugs!

My system:
I5-760 at 4ghz
Win 7 64bit
8gb RAM
Evga GTX580 SC

5. could be an improvement in realism....if i remember right in "spitfire on my tail" Ulrich Steinhilper didnt notice that he was indeed shot, until he saw his engine failing...
