Thanks Dale

Is this a patch kind of update, or a new version of the game?

Can anyone tell what new things are noticeable? I can't wait to get home to try it!

1. Fixed an issue with the terrain editor causing clutter not to align correctly

2. Fixed an issue where landing craft from cv would some times end up on land.

3. Commander in a cv is removed if he changes country.

4. Barges no longer go below water if at end of river

Downloaded and installed. And seems to run fine, but both executables show 4/20/21 build date? The installer place them somewhere else?

Never mind, I didn't read the message properly, in such a rush to try the new build I downloaded the wrong install package.

Best thing WE can do is get the word out, updates are happening

Cool.  Excited to see whats cooking.

I've kept my account open but play very little.

I hope you can breathe some life into your creation that has given me many memories over the last 25+ years.

Best of luck

The additional information on friendly icons - plane type - is what I noticed the few minutes I tried it out..

Apparently Facebook does not like our boards ....



I tried to share a link to this post to the Damned Officers Forum on facebook. It was refused for going against Community standards.

Can you use the "Let us know" link or does it take you to a "Page not Found"?

Now this is exciting news!, HT, can you feed codex your networking setup, and also my thread and findings here : https://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,412093.0.html and especially prompt it with this

DX11 - MA Stutter
DX11 - SEA2 No Stutter

I think that's the point, the 2 game servers are presumably running the same software and version of the game arena, the're in the same rack, it has to be some switching/firewall/load balancer config that's different in front of those 2 boxes

But hooray for AH new stuff!, can't wait to see what you have planned!

Periodic stuttering in DirectX 11 games is commonly tied to shader cache corruption, driver overhead, or Windows presentation stalls.To resolve or minimize DX11 micro-stutters:Increase or reset your Shader Cache size. For Nvidia, expand the shader cache allocation to 10 GB+ via the Nvidia App graphics settings; for AMD, clear and reset the shader cache within AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition after driver updates.Disable Multi-plane Overlay (MPO) in your Windows registry or via display configuration toolkits if presentation hitches persist.Cap your Maximum Framerate slightly below your monitor's refresh rate using third-party utilities like RivaTuner Statistics Server to smooth out frame pacing inconsistencies.Toggle Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling (HAGS) on or off in Windows Graphics Settings, as it handles memory management differently per system architecture.Perform a clean driver installation using Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) to clear out residual shader dumps or conflicting files.Watch this video for a demonstration on optimizing your shader cache size and reducing micro-stutters:1mBest Micro Stutters & FPS Drops FIX For ANY Game (Windows 10/11 Guide)2.7K views · 1 month agoYouTube · The Software GuyIf you want to narrow this down further, let me know:Your GPU model (Nvidia, AMD, or Intel)Whether the stutter happens continuously or only when entering new areas/loading effectsAces High Bulletin BoardDX11 Micro Stutter Fix!!!
