Today is my 40th birthday so I am disappointed enough already since I was praying for some answers rather than pictures (which are very good of course). Could you please bring me a nice birthday present today? ie, the answers to furbs questions


PS, Question 2, many of us are very interested in the 100 octane fuel question - that is will 12lbs boost be available for Spitfire and Hurricane when the cut-out is enabled?

Happy birthday!

Once again I asked Ilya, his answer:
"Patch information will be released when the patch itself is ready.
The BETA version of the patch will be for graphics and performance only."

As for the 100 octane fuel. Ilya discussed this with the programmers, the result is not yet known.

Sorry. I can not do more now.

BlackSix, can you please clarify? When you say "graphics and performance only" you mean that flight models, AI etc will not be changed in the beta?

[DroopSnoot]

B6, no new sounds in beta either?

Probably. I quoted the answer of Ilya. I have no other information.

Thank you B6

Honestly this answer you give here is a very good update for me. It is always nice to see pictures but with those words I can reset my expectation, and also know that Luthiers team are aware of the things we are seeking.

Big party tonight for me, I decided to put my rock band on stage for the entertainment, supported by a couple of other bands. As usual before a gig, nervous but also looking forward to it Thank you all for the birthday wishes!

that is a fair answer, BUT ..... the problem list provided by the OP of this thread is a pretty good summary of the MAJOR problems that exist (and have been left unresolved in the last 12 months)

our biggest issue is the Gfx and performance issue, so great that is being done properly with a major rewrite, BUT... we do expect that other programmers have been working on the other "gameplay affecting" problems that really degrade the quality and use of the sim for most of those using it (both online and offline)

those patient supporters cant be expected to wait for BoM to get these important essential fixes.

I see.. so.. the ONLY thing we'll get for the next three to six months would be a new graphic engine in a beta patch..

AWESOME!!!
