Development Update and Roadmap – April 14

[Mephisto]

Can we keep high textures for cockpit and aircraft, and have a slider for the buildings, terrain, trees... and other not so important details. It would be shame to have bad cockpit texture because of corn or wheat field that causes bad stutters dont you think?
Also the way buildings are poping up and chainging details as you aproach tham is to put it simply 'ugly'.
Would be nice to have a button to turn tham off competely untill you think of something smart.

i hope the random performance drop on some big cards has been sorted out

Wow, I love it that you're working so hard to meet our wishes/demands, It's really becoming a custom made game for us, and I really appreciate it!

Mephisto has a point, if there's a possibility, I'd also vote for a separate "slider" for the actual cockpit/plane textures.

BIG THANKS!!!!!!!!!

S!

Luthier, good to hear the issues are tackled ASAP. Add to this a working VSync + CrossFire/CPU optimizations = another 6970HD will come for best performance.

So this VAC ban is in effect if I would go MP with other mods than Kegetys' noSSAO and LowRez Tekstures I am using at the moment? Not that I have gone to MP games yet before the performance issues and bugs are fixed, can't stand stutter and pauses in online game where every FPS is crucial.

Allons! Long time indeed Great to see you are in good health..those were the times! Now back to topic.

Thanks guys. Cant wait. Some items i am looking forward too most are

1) fixed multiplayer.... tired of killing ai online. Why only a few people online?

2) need cem info for all planes. Manual only has some info for a few planes... for example what is the max min temperatures and pressures for spitfire??

3) sometimes ai appears and disapears online. Chase them just for them to vanish. Dont like wasting ammo on their dumb arses amyay but you cant tell if its ai until it disapears or flyes straight when you shoot it.

Anyway. Much love and having great time playing and thinking how it will be when bugs are fixed / actual people playing online.

Cant wait to shoot you slimey 109 pilots out the sky. And not just your ai decoy trickery.

Oh yea, and whats up with the no collision / bullet impact sounds. Dont know im getting hit until something hits my pilot or takes a wing off ect...

Luthier, this amazing simulator will be a success and will touch and change many lives as Communities and long term friendships will evolve around it.
Any challenges will be solved, have faith in your team.


Thank you and your team.

thank you for the update, good news that your starting to optimise for multiple cores. Really looking forward to the SDK When you say bans for mods, do you mean things like the Text improvement stickied ?

For those that missed it or did not understand; anyone using the current mods to improve performance such as reduced textures or no ssao will receive a vac ban if taken online.
