Performance report - old sys - 19935

Performance - old sys-1.9935

Sys specs:
os MS Win98
cpu: celeron 1000
ram: 256 mb
video: GeForce2 MX/400 - latest drivers (56)
          resolution 1024x762
sound: SB Live
jstick: MS pro (3 years old)

Big improvement with 35!  With vid preferances
set for optimum speed I now usually get:

On deck of CV:  12 fps.
Airborne over water: 32 to 60 fps
Flying near hills:  22 to 40

Bugs I have noticed:

Seeing terrain though mountains - only saw
this on one flight, for the duration of the flight.
I could see the white panels right through the mountain. Perhaps because I am running in
lowest graphic modes.

After being shot down and replaning, my frame
rate dropped to between 1 and 5 on the runway
and 8 to 10 in the air - even at high alt over water.  I was blown up by flak while fiddling
with preferances panel, and framerates
returned to my normal ones for my next flight.

My opinion at this point is that I prefer the new
gunnery model, and look forward to AHii going
to release, in spite of the performance hit my
system will take.:)
