G.50 cockpit. Every single instrument is frozen.
AI - can retain stupendous amount of energy. All of them.
AI Bombers act like fighters (See blendheim).
DM/AI blendheim can shoot through own tail. No damage
AI Blenheim bomb bay doors keep trying to close (in open position, they will half close and open.)
AI While in formation, FW200 will bank 90 degrees.
DM Chute has no collision model
Bug - When changing graphics settings, if game asks to restart - game restarts and than crashes.
DM. Walrus has damage model between two wings. Something burns there in empty space.

Microstutters are there even on lowest possible settings.
Sound - No flutter sound at all. Damage sound missing at time. You could hear enemy aircraft getting damaged 500 yards away. Stress sound is from SH3 - uboat.

Commands / joystick - sometimes joystick buttons presses do not respond for no reason at all. Difficulty is off for murpth-whatever-you-call-it.

Quick Mission Builder - When selecting saved mission and changing something (Your or enemy AC / weather etc), sometimes that mission will default to original settings - yet QMB screen still shows those changes.

Cool deja vu (this has happened before)

I can vaguely remember the first release of IL-2 and IL-2FB, there were many issues.

I can only get the program to run on the 'low' settings and then start getting some 'picture stuttering' and strange large 'green oblisks' in the Channel.

If I change aircraft sometimes, the system 'hangs-up'. If I increase the video quality the system crashes with a Microsoft box appearing saying 'Launcher has encounted problems and needs to close'.

On the plus side, the cockpits, aircraft and game interface are superb and I like the map detail - well done Ilya and Oleg.

On the downside, the 'Steam' interface is tiresome and I think a bit of an overkill. It also looks as though we can't 'tweak' our config.sys file any more to match our system specs. The full FMB is not included in the release.

I have just run a 'directx' and noticed I am missing a Gb of Ram. I did have 4Gb, might have a problem with my PC.

My System specs. are:
MS XPSP3 @32bit
Intel Core2 Extreme CPU Q6850@3.00Ghz
3GB Ram (Should be 4GB?)
ATI Radeon HD 4870x2 1024MB memory
MOB Gigbyte P35-DS4
Display Benq 1920x1200 (32bit,60Hz)
SB X-Fi Audio

I think I am in the 'middle band' of PC power (due for an upgrade), so I am sure the flight sim should run much better than it currently is?

  • Changing "100% Dead Zone" slider for Aileron axis changes "100% Position" slider for Throttle axis after Controls screen is closed. Enter the controls screen again after clicking Apply and they will be the same, and their value will be whichever value you chose for the last one you moved.
  • Loadouts often either fail to save or disappear after closing and restarting game with Steam Cloud either on or off.
  • Disabling Steam Cloud resets controls to default.

-i am not able that the Channel map is showing the Airfields and Village names (seetings are positive checked) in the FMB. Little bit trickey to work this way with it

-a Bf110C-4 without MG-FF/M is actually no C-4

- it would be nice if the double use of a button in the key-seleltion would always be named and not only to get a 'ping'

Things I've experienced so far:

System specs in my sig
Graphics set to Medium
Res 1920 x 1200

Stuttering:
Small quick ones when above 1km over the ocean but still noticeable.
Long and frequent stutters when close to ground.
Very heavy stuttering, 3FPS average, when over buildings.

Artifacts:
Exactly like this one: http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...4&postcount=96

AI:
When in training mission flying the circuit, if I'm close the final waypoint and AI takes over it makes very aggressive dive and turn to try and make it to the waypoint but we nose dive into the ground.

Sound:
I have Surround Sound Headset and Sound setting don't work according to setup.
- Surround Sound I only hear 2 channels L & R
- Headphones I hear 4 channels
- Quad I hear 5 channel including centre

Force Feedback - G940
No FFB effects can be felt, stick feel like on 100% spring centring.

Edit:
Crossfire - Not working even with Epi-Filter turned off via in game menu.

I have just 'tweaked' my system following Ilya's Q&A and have had a very pleasant flight (flying the Bf109E-3) up the coast of France between Le Havre and Abbeville, landing at Abbeville.

For my system (see above) you have to turn-off a lot of things to make it work. Even though I have less ground detail, I think the map is fantastic. I could easly follow the geography at 2,000m. Sadly on the 'Quick Flight' menu my landing flaps didn't work, though my 'hot landing' was successful?

The Messerschmitt cockpit is wonderful. I am not game to turn it on to a fully working cockpit because of a probable computer crash - what a pity!

Sadly, I think Ilya and Oleg have hit the market too soon, perhaps they had to?

I hope 'The Team' is working furiously to fix all of these gliches and Oleg and Ilya haven't ordered their new Mercedes Benz's yet?

PS 'Steam' is a dog!
