Another CTD 10 minutes into an offline mission. ATAG online 40 minutes without a CTD, but eight 0.5 - 1 second freezes. Could be lag or custom skins.

Left wing of the Bf-109 is with 'original' high qualitiy textures, right wing gets lower res textures.

I am going to stick to my guns on this patch. It is the first outing of the new grahics engine and it has obviously been released before they really wanted too. Visually I am better off going back to the older version and clocking back the GPU a bit but I am going to stick it out, fly it some more and post logs in the hopes it will end up helping get this game on its feet.

it is not looking pretty at the moment but if ever this game needed the help and support of the community it is right now. If it doesn't work out at least I can say I tried, as opposed to joining the chorus of the 'I told you so' brigade.

That's why they were initially disabled in the 1st place. (1/2 to 1 second pauses) But you have the ability to disable them or not.

BTW did re-starting the game help with stuttering? For some it seems to help.

+1
constructive input
I think a lot of people are missing the point of this patch..it is an Alpha after all.

I was wrong about the AI , I originally thought they have gotten more aggressive but that's pretty sporadic . I was following and shooting a bunch of G50's in my hurricane and the whole lot of them just kept flying straight ahead. At other times a few planes agressively came after me so it's kind of hit and miss there . Over all still a much improved Sim. Is there some way to improve AI ? Did I see some sort of program earlier that could adjust them ? EDIT : Actually yeah someone posted an AItweak program but it looks Dos complicated .

Yep, is this strange bug reported ?

a second load helps with performance, I guess is a problem bound with resources not being loaded correctly the first time, is a easy track bug.

Overall the patch helps a lot, at mid/high altitude you can fly over cities without problems and engage combats, however at low altitude there still shuttering but I guess is because the grass a trees are not optimized yet, as is reported in the know issues.

I have the issue of the texture cache failing to draw higher-res textures on close-up objects, I have no high resolution textures in planes and on the ground at low altitude.

I guess the texture manager don't likes my 1GB card or maybe is just that it needs be tuned because, for example, when you are in cockpit view at 90 degree FOV you have low resolution instruments but if you do a zoom the high resolution textures shows.

I have no crashes to report so I think that for an Alpha stage there progress, smooth game play (mid/high altitude) and an increase in FPS.

I think that if the texture manager is tuned a bit and the mentioned optimization of the grass and trees is done then we´ll have a nice Beta stage patch to test, smooth game play at all levels and nice FPS.

Keep the good work team
