Now My Problems:

Here is what I can't live with, if someone knows of a fix or tweak, please comment.

The trees, it seems as though 1/4 mile out they look like green cotton balls, don't know what I have set wrong, set it to bear min details, to max everything and they all look the same.

Second: The shadows, I know this has been discussed before, just wanted to leave my system specs here for the Dev Team to make note of so that it will help them along. Yes my shadows shake/shimmer/etc.

Third: initial simulator startup draw time. It seems on my system that it takes about 30seconds for all the textures to load up and the game to run somewhat smooth, don't know if there is something that I have set wrong or not, this isn't unbearable like the above, but it is annoying.

Forth: Sound, just wanted add me to the list, for the time Jafa, BP, etc are all doing a great job, and I commend yinz for filling in the void. But I don't play much online, and I have all the problems with sound, after about 2 patches ago. All my BF110s have no external sound. Sounds in external views for all planes are hit and miss with sound.

Well thats all I can think of for now. If anyone has any CONSTRUCTIVE advice/tips, I would really appreciate it.
