Wait, wait!!!! what's with the Steam, when it will download from Steam?????? :confused:

It wont until the Beta patch is made official... Maybe monday?

You have to Download and install yourself.

This is a beta patch. The steam version will come out after this has been tested in the community and will automatically download and install.

If you want to try the patch out now, head to the sticky topic at the top of the forum and download it (500mb). Then you will need to extract it over your game files.

Im going to run some test now buddy, loading times seem a tad longer but stuttering seems better, but more tests required at the moment.

I thought it was stated somewhere that using old tracks after a patch didnt always translate well, how are FPS during actual play, the same drop?


At work so cant test myself :)

Bliss have you updated your server yet?

Please say yes, please say yes!!!

maybe people should not sync with the steam cloud while using this beta .. just a thought ..

Fuel load out in single player is still broken.
Flickering shadows is actually a little worse, when I flew an SP mission.

Stuttering is still there but only when flying low.
Channel colour is a lot better.

....and did I say that the sound is good.... its a lot better.:grin:

AI.... is still poor.

E4 turns like a spit!! But being a blue pilot im not complaing!! :grin:


oh Fraps works again!!

I won't be home for a couple hours :( Hopefully someone else can get to it b4 then.

many thanks for this desired patch. I hope to return to fly with this sim.
