If this isn't possible, does someone have the maddox.dll from the english version so I can update my game language? (bought it from Russia when it wasn't available at western - loooong ago).

Not sure, but after the last Beta patch was released I did it the other way around, I managed to turn my game into the Russian version! Try it, the worst that can happen is you have to press 'Verify game cache' in steam if it doesn't take.

The best patch I ever seen!

I've gained up to 5 (FIVE) fps! Oh, there are some new bugs, but... 5 fps in 6 months of patch development is simply great!!!! And it is the beta, can't wait for final release of the patch, maybe I can gain others fps!

hi, i installed the patch correctly (I can see it in the right corner)
but when i try to fly (free flight: quick mission) I can hear the engines and so, but I get a black screen or my background of my pc but I can't see myself flying ;(

i think i have direct x 11, could that be a problem?



thx in advance

Control animations, particularly those regarding the joystick and throttle still animate terribly. This also extends to the ailerons and elevators on aircraft which do not animate at the same FPS as the game which makes the animations jarring to look at compared to the rest of the game.

Whats even more confusing is if the same control such as a throttle is clicked on with the mouse and dragged, it animates smoothly. If the same control is linked to a throttle controller and moved, it animates at a slower rate and looks very poor.

This will be especially noticable to more people as they achieve better FPS now than before. It really should be fixed, I'm on the verge of putting up a comparison video comparing it to other recent flight simulators to show just how jarring and poor the animations look.

Too many other miscellaneous issues or WIP elements to really make a proper comment on the rest of the patch. From the looks of things its primarily to check for serious stability issues, which is ok by me. I just hope all these miscellaneous issues are cleared up before a proper release.
