Hi,
After installing the 14214 patch I had low FPS so decided to decrease the resolution.
I changed it from 1680*1050 60Hz to 1280*720 60Hz
After restarting the game I chose a quick mission and it loaded the briefing with no problems
but when I hit Fly the screen got windowed.
Now when I push Escape button it goes back to full screen and when I resume the game it gets windowed again!

Hi, same here as you shoeib! It always gets windowed if using something else than 1920*1080, pretty annoying.

And always when using something else resolution than 1920*1080, when I'm in the middle of Quick mission, I press Esc and go to Options => Controls and remap for example my machine gun trigger (and press Apply) and go back to Fly, I cannot see anything: screen has changed to 5 cm wide and nothing can be seen or done, sound can be heard.

When I press Esc, I will get back normal game screen but my video options has changed to 1920*1080, 60 Hz and when I Press OK in Video setup, whole program needs to restarted. Otherwise I cannot play at all because the flying view has gone broken.

If I do the same thing with full resolution 1920*1080 this problem does not occur. Rather difficult to explain but there is terribly wrong somewhere in the graphics code at the moment.

So, two problems:
1. Always gets windowed
2. Flying view breaks if you change your options in hte middle of flying but not when using 1920*1080 res.

Video Options during these two problems:
Resolution 1024*1080, 60 Hz
Full screen: on
Anti-aliasing: off
Anti-Epilepsy: off
SSAO: on
VSYNC: off
Grass off, Roads and Shadows on, others Medium or Low.

Hopefully somebody from coding team reads these...

Here my PC specs:
ASUSTeK M4N68T (latest BIOS)
AMD Phenom II X2 550
NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT 1 GB (lates drivers 270.61)
2 x Kingston 2 GB DDR3 PC3-10700 (667 MHz)
Windows 7 64-bit (latest updates)
Display: Samsung 24", Full HD

And the game itself: I've installed the latest patch which came out 22.4.2011.

At the moment, I think the game is close to unplayable. Maybe I have to get faster CPU and GPU. But anyway, I've payed a lot of money from this, it should not have so many bugs as there is still. This is not acceptable.

Same as iL2:1946, make sure you run the same resolution than your desktop.

Some of the menus, especially the Plane Loadout screen and Pilot customization menu either do not load at all or partially load, meaning the drop down menus are blank and the display for the 3d models of the aircraft and pilot are generally a black void.
