What?  You've never seen weeds grow up between the floor planks of a quonset hut before?

There is some nice quite pretty stuff with all the settings pushed up. This put the frame rate at 14.

With all of the graphics turned down the rate went up to 58.  Both frame rates were while static in the hangar.

Having seen other games I play go all out for appearance instead of playability, I can't help feeling a bit nervous.

I can't justify upgrading all of the necessary gear to play Version 3, so as it stands now I'd choose to play in Version 2.

Will we be able to play on Version 2 after Version 3 goes live? 

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to play a game that looks as good as Version 3 and I can appreciate how much work you must have put into it.  However, I'll always pick playability over looks.  Being in the UK I already suffer from longer ping times and rubber bullet syndrome when the skies get busy, I can imagine that Version 3 will make the game unplayable for anyone either outside the USA or who hasn't got top end gear and a great Internet connection.

Did you try assigning the joystick axis in controller setup?

Sound issues,  choppy engine looking up in P47 and F4U possibly more.
Also if idle, P28 and many other aircraft go silent with no idle sound played.

Climb and Weight do not show on E6B.

I tried to get a stork out of a hanger and it bounced and crashed at A64 Greebo map

F121 crater map, you cannot select any plane gv or boat

Environmental map slider setting doesn't stay where I put it. Set it to "none" hit Ok and proceeded to spawn a tank. After seeing low FPS I rechecked the graphics settings and the Env. map slider was back at 2. Seems to reset automatically. Even setting at none, logging off, and logging back on doesn't make a difference. Slider resets to 2.

I found that, flying low the trees appear to mash into one another. I think this is because they are all the same green throughout. I think if more shades or green were used the trees wouldn't do this.

The waves going onto the beaches is very uniform in it's lines, looks unnatural

I was able to drive a Ju87G through the motorpool doors from one side to the other with no damage.

Tested the down time right click.  Every object I destroyed on enemy and friendly worked perfectly so far.  Super neat feature I might add.

Engine start puffs still illuminate the pedal area under the dashboard in certain fighters like 109's, 190's, La's etc.

Tested the new slider.
in a gv got pretty much 60fps no matter what I set it at with everything full on.

In a airplane above ground clutter detail I could go full slider with everything on and still held 60
However when flying at NOE levels took a big hit dropping below 40.

Still in a plane at NOE levels and default the graphics setting and full on with the new slider I started adding back the check list items one at the time then back off to test the next one..  Nothing hit the frame rate like shadows on.  All other things like ground clutter had little effect.


I might add too I saw little difference in eye candy with the slider much above default setting.

Didn't see any FPS change with change in terrain detail slider position but did see change in height and shape of mountains. It was nice mowing down down some trees with Panzer but stopped by many others. I would post  the positions but don't know where they are saved. I did use the .Psave command.

It appears there is no way to take off in the Storch from V149 in the Crater map. It spawns in the middls of a cluster of buildings.

37mm still has no firing flash.

When testing the 37mm I played with the new slider again.  Shadows was again the biggest frame rate hog.

Not exactly a bug, but the desktop windows icon say AH ALPHA (not beta)
