In hanger with Me 410 selected with the 4x20mm guns in bomb bay. Game completely locks up when clicking the Convergence button. Sound continues to play but mouse pointer frozen on Convergence button. Alt-F4 does not close the game (but this feature may have changed with AH3?). Screen goes all white if Alt-Tab to desktop. Screen stays all white if Alt-Tab back to game. Ctrl-Alt-Delete to Task Manager but screen goes to white. Alt-Tab and hold to Task Manger shows AH3 not responding – when you release Alt-Tab the screen goes white. Task Bar functional when Alt-Tab to something other than AH3. Had to restart computer to end AH3.

Under Patch 9 the Me 410 convergence button works without locking up the game.
BUT...where I was DX11, the splash screen now says DX9 -- maters not to me.
Just as a side note, with the Me 410 it is hard to tell which guns are going with which color. Maybe some day add a legend that list which caliber guns go with which color.

Not able to duplicate the lockup in DX11 or DX9. Are you?

You may need to read my sentence again a little more carefully: Me 410 convergence lockup is fixed under Patch 9.
Now for the "DX9" versus "DX11" on the splash screen, what I did was installed Patch 9, said "Yes" to start AH3 now, and the opining splash screen said "DX9". Check to see if the convergence button for the Me 410 was working (it was) and quit. Started the game later and splash screen was back to "DX11". So the DX9/DX11 thing only happened "within" the patch installation process.

The DX9 version is started, by default, after a patch. We changed that a few patches back until we get the DX11 issues ironed out.
