System Specs
AMD FX-1400 X4 3.6ghz
Asus m5N78L MB
8 gb Corsair 1600MHz CL9 DDR3
Win 7 64bit.
Nvidia GTX560

Strange you should be fine by that system, I would suspect another program...be sure to send in a crash/dump to devs

Any of you with a crash on launch,

If you receive a crash due to CLR20r3 (not Appcrash):

* Verify Integrity in steam (reverts to last official)
* RUN THE GAME WITH LAST OFFICIAL VERSION (This installs several things that won't run if you install the beta patch straight away!)
* Install beta patch and play!

Has anybody tried the new 12,7 ATI beta driver?

[Flanker35M]

S!

Steuben, no problems with Catalyst 12.7 official betas and 12.7 Cap 1. I get too the launcher.exe crash when exiting the game, not during gameplay. But what I have noted which is pretty annoying is that trees when flying at low altitude sometimes appear only close to you within this "Ring of LOD". I mean some trees, not all as most of them for sure are there. Easiest this can be seen when taking late afternoon QMB and wathing it happen as shadows reveal it pretty easily.

Will do, thanks SlipBall,

odd though...I've just played 6 quick missions without an issue. Maybe as suggested it was another program in the background.

All in All the patch was a big improvement for Me.

Cheers

.
The Hurricane all type have a start with a cold engine start problem.
In the QM there is some problem with the launcher when you change from QM to another. But not always.
There is a strange tree low altitude visual glitch (they are visually visible at one mille not more) if grass is on or not?
On the other side the new 100 octane Spitfire and Hurricane are welcome and nice addition to the game.
The clouds at medium are also nice to fly around and in.
Tracers are better than before,
In the Tiger Moth the attitude indicator is still not working.
A big railway line in the middle of the channel is something strange and not very historical!
One patch more and all should be OK!

-trees are building up only when just overflying them
-much more stutters even on medium settings
-landed a Blenheim and throttles stopped working
-in flight throttled up Hurri 100: CTD
-before patch: one or no CTD an evening. This morning: 15 CTD when changing settings,changing missions etc
-engine levers still not working properly
-mirror still useless
-saw a railway in the channel almost connecting Dover with Calais
This patch experience, along with all other items that needs to be fixed:
tree collision,coop,etc....makes me getting a little tired

system:
-ASUS P6T Motherboard
-Intel i7 965 extreme quadcore
-one Nvidia GTX 295
-6 GB Corsair DDR3 RAM
-Windows7 64bit
-one dissapointed simmer

I don't fly on-line, so all comments just Quick Mission off-line. Over London Max all except shadows, Vsync, and AA off: about 40fps at chimney tops. In Quick Mission over water, Spits against 110s, smooth (too busy to watch fps), but props always look like turning slowly. In all cases, exhause smoke and flame absent. Land textures seem a bit blurry up close--not bad, just not as eye-popping as in past. Generally, if I try to save any setting once a flight has started, game locks-up. Do the same before starting a flight, no lock-up.

Flew the quick missions over Dover, Le Havre and London. Settings: 1920 x 1080, all quality ‘High’, AA, A-EF, SSAO ‘Off’, VSYNC ‘On’, Grass, Shadows and Roads ‘On’, using SMAA and cpu @ 4.20GHz.

Launcher.exe crash when exiting the game, have never had these before. Changing graphic settings requires starting the game, making changes and exiting the game, any other way results in the launcher crash when exiting and the changes not being applied.

The new tree LOD is a bit distracting, and results in mild stutters when looking sideways when at really low altitudes, even with a high frame rate. Having a setting for this might be useful.

I noticed quite a large frame rate increase over London at low altitude. At 500 feet I previously had 29-34fps, now I get 36-42fps, with no visible graphic difference. And thank you very much for fixing those blue lines on the horizon!

Slide show near human planes and while zooming to the ground. Game performance decreased with this last patch.
