You have to admit in the scheme of things if turning EP filter off fixes the issues (which most people do by default) it isn't exactly a high priority, especially when they are re-writing lots of graphics rendering code. And this forum is a pretty good source of info for most problems like this even if it's not always the friendliest place that we would like it to be. But we are getting there because the frequent offenders are either getting the message or banning themselves out of existence with infractions for ignoring the rules.

The Devs will get to it when the other more important things like decals for small calibre bullets and other graphics bugs are addressed to get the game smooth with all graphical features working again.

Currently I have the last official patch for playing offline campaigns and the lastest beta for going online and it meets my needs. It obviously works well enough for a lot of others too because there have been consistently 25-40 people online in ATAG compared to less than 20 on any given night for 1946 so people ARE starting to come to CLOD. (and im in Australia and not exactly going online at peak times) Many of my squadron are now regularly on CLOD where as only 2 months ago hardly any of them were making the move to CLOD. Getting on comms (TS3) and the game has an immersion and fun factor that you cant get on 1946 even with its current short comings. I'd like a few more objectives online and more team play but it's getting better lately in terms of enjoyment for me.

So as you can see, a little graphics anomaly like this thats easily fixed shouldnt spoil the game for you!

Ummm 20 to 40 people mate is not many. I remember the old IL2 days when there were stacks more than that. I also remember, prior to turning into a sim junkie, that I had no idea about forums and stuff. I don't reckon every one who purchased this sim would know where to find this forum for answers, including the really easy stuff.
I reckon it is important to put that stuff on 1C's website, which is never updated. They could at least put a link to this forum perhaps.
Just wonder how many out there purchased the game and didn't know that a graphic glitch was so easily fixed. Those people need to be catered for also. If this a niche market, then every single person counts.
That's why I don't understand those that protect the sim by attacking others. Every person that leaves is one person too many. It's easy to say that squillions of people play off line and multiplayer is not an indication of COD's success, but what if it is an indication.
They need to tell people of these little things, whilst getting the big things done, or at least fix these little things quickly.
Just my opinion Phat, but I can see your side as well. Cheers mate.

Good Point Banned....
The Dev's should have a locked thread.
To post their ideas or thoughts on how
to configure, tweak and setup this sim at this time.

It should be updated often. Certainly, with every "patch".

Once again, it would be nice, if they posted their system spec's
and OS?

Good idea. If you need to do a fresh install it can be hard to remember all those little adjustments and tweaks, now where is that thread that tells you how to get rid of that frightened pilot's face on the load screen?
