That memory makes the difference. 5970 is fast card but only 1 gig

Nice, do you have settings at max?

Allmost, no ssao. When i upgraded it was different game right away, no much difference in 3dmark versus 5970 but clod was really smooth, so must be memory.

All in all this is a step in the right direction. I started having crashes where I didn't before.

I could easily say its a step back but I have to be more objective about this.

It's smoother to me. No CTD in bombers yet and that could easily be reproduced within 10 minutes. That is gone.

Just send in your crash files and lets get this done. I'd hate to have to fix everyone's particular setup but this is what you get when you develop for PC's and not consoles.

Get busy and play a lot. Enable log=1 and flood'em. Sooner we get this done the better.

Quoted for emphasis. The more we give them to work with, the higher the probability of fixing the majority of underlying issues.

Hurricane ROTOL low engine speed (just started, cold engine) cuts out intermittantly, much like the Tiger Moth.

Wanted to post this in the Bugtracker, but the site seems to be down atm?!
Specs are below, tested on my PC.

Anyway if you bail out now you dont hear the normal cockpit sound of your plane anymore... thats an improvement!!
But now when you bail out, the engine sound of your plane stops immediately. If you switch to the exterior view of your pilot, you can hear the engine sound fading away together with your former plane. But as soon as you switches back to the 1st person perspective the engine sound stops at once.
This is a general bug for all planes I think.

For those thinking the throttle is bugged, check the axis settings of the throttle.

Very likely the 100% position is messed up. Check if 0% is at 0% and 100% at 100 %, then input and output should match again.

You need to enable triple buffering with Vsynch On otherwise there is a risk of a timing issue that results in jumps between 60 and 30. The extra buffering tends to overcome that.

AI no longer drops bombs when the player drops bombs

There are no commands to tell AI when to drop bombs.
