I turned off AH's V-sync and Forced On my video card's V-sync. I turned on Triple Buffering too with this update. The only additional eye-candy I added was the bump-mapping on my own plane. I don't know if I bump-mapped the buildings, but I can't tell in flight. I only notice from inside the tower, where I try to spend as little time as possible anyway. Can't notice ground clutter unless you're flying in the weeds so I turn it off in flight. The draw distance on it is really jarring anyway if you're moving quickly. It seemed to be making my screen stutter anyways even though I was reporting 60FPS.

The game already doess triple buffering.  You really do not want to force it in the video driver.

For some reason, first time I installed update, it went to AH beta folder. Second try and no problems.
Ended up saving my settings & dumping the game & downloaded it again & was back up in under half an hour.

All in all sounds like a great update. Alas, I just fried my motherboard, so it'll be a few days before I can try it out.

External view mode is now disabled in manned guns.

Boo to this. Or can you at least still unlock the view? It takes about a minute to rotate a 17 lb.er, about 1/4 second for a crew member to turn his head and look somewhere other than where the gun is pointed.

Wirbel and Ostwind turrets can no longer take on indefinite damage after they've been destroyed without eventually destroying the vehicle.

Yay to this!  dancing banana  dancing banana  dancing banana  dancing banana  dancing banana  dancing banana  dancing banana  dancing banana  dancing banana  dancing banana  dancing banana

This was by far the most annoying thing about the game before. Nothing like pumping 20 or 30 85mm AP rounds into a Wirbel from the side and still not killing it.

Found missing sheep and returned them to their splendor.

A guy can dream, can't he?

Runways seem too bright now.  In RL I doubt they stood out as much.   Not complaining just saying would be more realistic if they were toned down a little, imho.

Also, I see a line either above or below the sun depending on where I am.   Be good to eliminate that. 

 salute

I'm gonna give it a day or two to break-in, but I had that same opinion (probabley because I was paying close attention to graphics and apearances last night), the new concrete color is too white/bright.
