Welcome to the alpha Patch 69. This was built and released on July 31, 2015.
Test goals:------------------
Test for stutters. Stutters are defined as repeating pauses. Not just single random pauses, especially when the game first starts. We made a change which should help reduce stutters, but need verification.
To test; Disable vsync, turn shadows off, disable post lighting, and move the environment slider to "None". This should give most people a fairly high frame rate, which should help detect stutters more easily.
Fly low over the terrain, looking out one side of the airplane, should help in detecting stutters.
Also please mention any frame rate changes.
Corrections/Updates:---------------------------
Action: Icons, for sheep and pennant, now show in the top right corner, when you have one.
Action: The check boxes, for hide sector lines, now works in the Terrain Editor.
Action: Fixed an issue where the editor would load from splat.bmp at startup, if the file existed.
Action: Floating hangar at port was fixed.
Action: Pennant now shows their country and are very visible from distances. (This may change)
Action: Hangars gunner selection is no longer invisible.
Action: WWI Hangar LOD distances corrected.
Action: Made some changes to the clutter system and other things like tracers that should drastically reduce stutters and possibly increase frame rate.
Action: Fixed a missing texture bug with the WWI terrain.
Action: Fixed an issue that caused some objects to not be fogged, and hence looked like the flickered in the distance. Small Airfield was one of these objects.
Additional Information:
Use the ".psave filename" command to save your position in the terrain/world. If you do not provide a file name, then file will be saved as "cmepos.txt" in the "settings" folder. Thank you!
State of the Dev Cave!-----
We have a few items left for us to convert / rewrite to the new system.
1) Clouds.
2) Road/ train system.
So we are now interested in people posting any smaller stuff they see. Some of the smaller stuff I know about are:
a) No wakes.
Thanks for the help with the creation of AH3.
