Version 2.30 Patch 1 Changes
======================

Performed an optimization in the texture mapping of a large number of planes to remove inefficient allocations of texture memory.  This will help lower the amount of video memory used when you are in proximity to other planes.

Fixed an issue that could cause an error message to flash on the screen for a split second during connect up.

Implemented a fix to an issue of plane dots not displaying correctly with some video chips when the clipboard is up or during a vox transmit.

Fixed a bug that caused the left propellers to hide when there was a pilot wound in the Lancaster.

STR objects are now listed as Non-strat structures when you destroy them.  They are just destroyable objects that have no effect on strat or resupply.

You can now mouse over a friendly dot on the clipboard map to show the game id of that player.  You have to hold the mouse cursor over the dot for a 1/2 second.  There is a sysvar in the arena flags menu to turn this arena setting off and on.

Fixed a bug that caused bump mapping and shadows to not display on your bomber drones.

Fixed a bug that caused gunsights to be missing from the Lancaster drones.

Fixed a film viewer bug that caused wind noise to not correctly ramp in volume.

Film viewer playback speed now goes up to 8x.

Bomb craters no longer display when dropped on the aircraft selection hangar.

Fixed a display bug with the Lancaster gunners looking like they're shooting lasers.  This is a display bug only.

Fixed a bug that caused the bombsight to not calibrate correctly when wind is on.  If there is a wind present, the calibration is only valid for the heading you were on when you calibrated.

Increased Ki-43 ammo load to 270 rounds per gun.

Fixed a prop sorting error on the Lancaster during engine start.

He 111 propellers no longer display fully feathered when the engine is off.

Fixed an incorrect label on the hangar bomb loadout of the Ki-43.

Revised the compass tape texture on the He 111.

Fixed a phantom polygon that was showing when the MG package was selected on the C.205.

Elevator trim gauge on the C.205 did not have a full range of motion.

He 111 rudder pedal animations were reversed.

Fixed some damage display errors on the Maachi's.

P-47M was missing a hangar label for wing points.

The .score command now shows the last 10 players you got kills of and killed by.  Other player's kill lists won't update until their sortie ends.

Did train resupplying strats not make it in this patch?

Bomb craters no longer display when dropped on the aircraft selection hangar.   Thanks HTC.  No more hidden field gun positions....

I noticed that was missing too.  It may just be missing from the notes though, as it was a late change.

I just tested it in custom arena, it works now. Apparently just missing from release notes.

A few really cool new additions IMO.  I really like the mouse over player ID thing, when you're climbing or in transit to a fight, it gives me something to do, have a look around and see who is up to what, etc.  Whoever had that idea should get a happy meal, I'd never thought of it or even considered anything like that, but I'm really liking it.  Also, the new .score function of showing the last 10 kills/killed by is another great diversion and addition for interests sake.

Also, the addition of the extra 20 rnds of ammunition to the new Ki43 may not seem like a big deal, but it shows that HTC really listens to the customers when they bring historical and proven documentation to the table in order to effect change.  The optimization stuff, I guess time will tell, I'm waiting for some bigger fights tonight to see if it has any effect on FPS on my end.

I have a little clenched-teeth-cringe moment every time I see people demand, DEMAND I SAY, a response from Hitech. I guess one develops a thick skin.

Aaaand the wind is back... slightly different. At this moment from 14K upwards in 8 different layers. Bombsight now indeed compensates for wind.
