As a side note about trees...I noticed this last night and again in the Toad video. Trees are 700+ feet tall.....someone get a giant weedwhacker.

I am running an AMD64 3200+ with a Radeon 9800 pro, and I had to pull the two top sliders ALL the way to the right to maintain a playable framerate (high 20s). I am all for improved graphics and more realistic terrain and foliage, but I do hope there is some code optimization coming up...

I was thinking the same thing. Langoliers. Scary.

Or maybe it's the hypercube degrading before it implodes.

I just tried shift+F1 and shift+F2 soon after take off from A19 on the Baltic map. The difference in frame rate was HUGE!!!

Shift+F1: 24 fps
Shift+F2: 140 fps

Looks like the new forrests eat some serious frames...

i mapped short/medium range buttons to my joystick, when im low the ground details eat up frame rate, always have probably always will, i just put it on the short draw distance when it starts acting up, i think there should be an option for this to happen automaticly once your frame rate goes below a certain level, or just coencide the alt to draw distance since we cant see the horizon when were 5o feet off the ground anyway.
