However I'm still getting BAD STUTTERING WHEN LOOKING STRAIGHT AHEAD IN 'COCKPIT VIEW'!
Looking out to the wings, the stuttering disappears - it's therefore looks like its being affected by the pixels etc relating to the instrument panel and/or rear view mirror! Obviously stuttering in this view is the most bothersome because one can't aim etc.


When looking sideways (to the wings), I get a consistent and smooth 30+fps, whereas when looking straight ahead I get 30+fps dropping to 7fps after every 2 or so seconds (creating the stutter) - hope that helps!?

Other than that, it's a big improvement - thanks, and keep up the good work.

I respectfully suggest that resources get prioritised to the STUTTERING ISSUE - with bad stuttering, the game essentially remains unplayable for me and others who have systems a year or two old.
Possibly some of your settings are to high, I have very little stutter and certainly none out the front, but I always turn the mirror off as it is buggy anyway and reduces fps.

Nice that the weathering slider now functions for single plane flights. The Stuka is still shaking though, please look into this luthier.

I realised that the Stuka shaking is because of flying it incorrectly. It happens when the engine isn't treated correctly. RPM's, temps, etc...

There is a little shaking or just vibration but i think its meant to be so. I mean this aircraft is not streamlined and those "retractable landing gears" are well suited for gliding

Addman take this advise from VO101_Tom as i had the same problems. Now its nice to fly.

I dont know, what you doing, but my mistake was in first flights, that i didnt open enough the water radiator. You see one gauge on the top-right part of the cocpit panel, it shows, how much open the radiator.
Other important things, the engine limitations. Read on the manual page 96. The "cruise settings" is 1100 engine rpm, 1.1 ata manifold pressure. Keep this limitations and temperatures, dont push the throttle without thinking.
The supercharger pull out about 2500m. If you dont touch them, the engine will be weaker in high altitude, but do not shaking.
I hope it helps


Cheers

Hi LCSummers, I saw that you went and checked out my thread and saw Tom's explanations. He's worth his weight in gold for his knowledge! - now we can fly the Stuka the way it was meant. Also, I am amazed at the depth of the engine modelling... Mindblowing, really.

Excellent, yeah ... but it's amazing also that the Bf109 ceiling is still 7'300 m instead of 10'500 m ...

Cheers
and this needs also a fix, because the Ju87 had two settings:
-automatic setting , with shifting between low blower and highblower was made automaticaly
- low blower only , to force the useage of lowblower even at heigher altitudes


BTW, are the engine temperatures are still set to zero if you change crewposition in a plane ONLINE (!). That makes the Blenheim almost useless in onlineflying
