i did read somewhere that AH2 will be more video card memory dependent than what it is now. so most will have better luck going to a better Vid. like a 64 or 128 meg agp card.

Yup. Upped in size textures are possible with the current engine, terrain and aircraft. It's nice to know we're getting them but it doesn't push polys any higher and the system spec, although slightly higher, doesn't increase that much.

As noted by ccvi I think the most significant bits in that pic are the fuzzy terrain bits and pieces in the background  :)

Please keep the bones coming HT.

Right now the MA has lost my interest, with ToD being the only activity I've really been involved with in AH for the last couple of months. A certain other MMPOG has drawn me in and despite its bugs, crap FM, and other stuff I'm actually having fun.

But because of this other games crap FM I'm rarely flying. Roll on AH2 please :)

Very nice. I would love to see a screenshot of the new terrain graphics and cockpit.

After all, thats what I am usually watching all the time; a cockpit pointed backwards :-P

Your Celeron 700 is where you're dying.  Get rid of that second-rate processor and buy a real one :D.  Where you're gonna get nailed is the processor and the PCI graphics card.  If the original post by the guys at HTC is truthful, you'll need at least a p3 900 + a Geforce2 rated card for the "benchmark" system.  Start thinking of upgrading...you'll need to.

Wow it looks great!  Anyone else notice the trim tab on the aileron?  I love the attention to detail!
