Title: Patch 5
Post by: 100Coogn on August 04, 2012, 01:22:12 AM: Version 2.28 Patch 5 Changes
======================

Made a change to the hi-res auto-downloader so that if it fails to launch the update patch, it will open your Aces High folder and give you a prompt with instructions on manually installing the hi-res patch.

Planes that start flight with flaps extended no longer reconnect from a disco with their flaps extended.

The Nav-aids system variable is now viewable in the View Mode Flags menu in the Arena setup.

Fixed an issue with the material of muzzle flashes having specular properties.

Coogan :aok

If you are experiencing lower frame rates, you changed some other setting, or on a different place or terrain.

If I type defrag in the start menu on my task bar and use "disk defrag" or whatever, will that work? Sorry I am a damn noob :rofl

Post by: Wiley on August 04, 2012, 06:49:43 PM: Yep, that'll do it Redbull. It's always a good idea. It may seem like a small thing, but I've seen firsthand it work magic on framerates if the wrong file was fragmented.

Start/all programs/acessories/system tools

If you had a sudden & severe loss of frame rates. Try re-downloading and re-installing the high res pack.
Eliminating the only other possibility for the issue I had a couple of patches ago. Its what worked for me
