I run a few quick missions, seems fine so far.

The blurry textures remain, but i've had this since forever and not just with the latest alpha patch, so maybe it's also due to my low overall RAM. However, i was able to increase texture resolution from medium to high without losing any FPS and it made up for most of the blurriness. Some of the cockpits in twin engined aircraft still do it (eg, the bombardier's gauges in the Blenheim).

My specs:
i7 920 @ 2.7Ghz
3GB of RAM
Ati 4890 1GB
win7 x64

My settings:
1680x1050 resolution
Vsync, trees, roads, shadows ON
SSAO, epilepsy filter OFF
texture resolution, model detail, land shading HIGH
forests LOW
everything else MEDIUM.

An interesting thing happens while flying through medium cloud cover in the BF-109 E3. Flying straight and level, same throttle position, same engine sound tone, speed indicator drops to zero.

Nice effect of the pitot tube freezing over perhaps?

I very much doubt its a bug.

Good feature, I like it...seems to clog a bit quickly though, I don't really remember the previous vershion as drastic

Ive never understood this effect to be honest, clouds produce water on windscreens since that's what they are made of, only at higher altitudes would it freeze but after the water ended up on the windscreen.
I'd love to see this changed sometime to a nice water effect rather than the frost.

This is correct and models your pitot tube getting iced up! There is a switch to switch on pitot heating in the 109

Mirrors rendering - Collision bug. (was there pre mini fix too)

Following a collision - mirrors if disabled, are enabled and render with exaggerated block colour tones.

First post . Yeah!

Anyway , anybody else get a red block as the replacement for the aircraft with the cross hair logo as you start up the game? I have had it since the Alpha patch last week.
