Thank you for your feedback. We probably have to move spawnpoints back to hangars as planes explode if start at runway. Also we will try moving spownpoints to better airfields (which do not have hangars) in future.

This is the map issue which we can not edit and the Devs are working on it.

Do not give up. If I explode I hit create again immediately and spawn at a good location the 2nd time. Try a new version tonight please.

Didn't want to give up.. but after 6 times in a row i'd had enough.. but it won't put me off trying again. It does need fixing though.. i'm sure it will frustrate other too.

Thanks again for the server.

Today I had to create a new plane about 10 times in a row, changing airfields sometimes... But it was worth it.

Another busy day in France.

(sorry for large pix, did not find SPOILER code here)

Ataros what settings you running your card at, I do not see the ATI blue lines on your screenshots?
Unless it is only the HD 6970's that have the problem?

Yes, as far as I know only 6970 and maybe 6950. I never had any lines with any settings

Ppl say 8x AA or aniso set in drivers may help you.

New maps are put up on both Repka servers.

Repka DS #1 - France map with 5 small missions loading into the main mission creating a living airwar environment with various objectives. (uses this script http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...6&postcount=95 )

Repka DS #2 - completely reworked carriers map for good old IL-2 dogfight.

Feedback is appreciated.

I love the server guys..great setup and performance.. just enough AI activity to keep the targets available when the numbers online were low.. great work!

Had a wierd experience last night, logged in and was 1 of only 3 on the server.. spawned a Spitfire at an RAF field nearest the coast and the battle line.. lots of flak going on at the time.. when I first spawned in the fps was going from 2 to 62 did that for about 20 seconds then I exited and created a new plane...same field.. spawned and it worked fine..smooth and no stutters.. don't know if it was communication related or graphics..

Probably the 1st time all the scenery was loading into vram from your harddrive. It takes some time. It is useful to switch to external views and then to several planes to have most of resources loaded into ram and vram before takeoff.

2 fps probably mean harddrive excess. Do you defrag your game files after each patch? I use gamebooster to do this. Works better than steam defrag for me.
