BETA PATCH v.1.08.18956 - August 3, 2012

[OverVolts]

I noticed a performance increase in this patch, and also the allies plane rear view mirrors are finally fixed to not cause the FPS dips.

They also seem to be off by default when you start a mission. But they are still a chocolate teapot for seeing what is behind you.

Awesome patch, the game feels really smoth now and I get around 45-50 fps skimming the roofs over London with default high settings (and the new medium effects). I got about the same fps in earlier patches but with some micro stuttering that is now completely gone. Silk smooth and it actually feels like 100 fps all the time... Big difference from earlier patches!

In external view on the standard Hurricane free flight over Dover I get around 100 fps and 80fps in the cockpit over southern England, and on the Channel mission I get 150 fps in average... And when buzzing the countryside low it feels completely smooth and keep at 60 fps or so all the time...

Great work MG! I really have hope for BoM now!

And another thing - they have fixed the distant water problem! No more does Southern England look like the Mekong Delta!

After four nearly five hour flying no crash, nice details, take off and landings without problems and fps at the high end for my PC all of the important bugs gone! Nice work thanks!

Is that only true in combination with a browser or also true for Media Players able to play Flash, i.e. like the VLC Media Player? I have a hard time picturing players flying whilst their browsers are open, watching "100 ways to die in Skyrim".

I think it would be mainly browsers that would be the flash problem. Things like ads running on the top of this page contain flash.

I often have music playing whilst in the game, either web-based or a media-player. There's also Trackir, MSI Afterburner, Teamspeak, TS Notifier and several other applications such as HOTAS control that could perhaps impinge on the game. Frankly, I'm staggered it all works, well, most of the time
