Ok im gonna test on each of my pc's varying the sets ups hard ware ect be paitent as for i have 5+ different pc combo's to get thru...
First Test PC

Wingman extreame 3d joystick
AH2 started up fine here.. setup video to
16bit 800x600 everything cranked all the way up
frame rates lowest i saw was 15fps the average was 25-30 peak was 53
appearence of game foggy like fa3 (i dont like that much fog ) but it wasnt to unbearable... adjusted fog distance out looked better.
Tree textures dont look that great as of yet.
while flying I would get triangle's of various shapes and size flashing around the prop arc in cockpit view.
AI plane explosions were non existent ...(not shure if this is video card or beta related )
Plane graphics looked good , terrain textures are visiable but not real crisp.
White screen of death when i tabbed back into the game
i'll test on my smaller machine next ....

Third test machine ... my work monster
Over clocked ... to the moon

1.5gb ddr 333
Ti 4600 128mb overclocked 30.xx det drivers
10k rpm scsi hds
Win 98se os updated DX 8.1
No extra goodies like firewalls/virous programs or any of that ... this machine never see's the internet...
it also has a second os bootable and ah2 played with the same results in win XP
FPS run 35-55 most of the time (still see the stray rectangles )
Peek fps 170 looking up
the lowest i saw was 29fps and that was while firing with tracers turned on ... w/ tracers off it went back up to 45-50 ish
Now this pc should see fps in the 80+ plus area . (il2, FA3 run 80+ fps normally)

Test machine #4 This is the smallest machine i have for testing with the smallest agp video card...
950 t-bird amd cpu, standard clocking
msi K7T turbo v3.0 mainboard
128 sdram 100
GF2 mx 200 32mb 21.xx drivers
Win 98se ,DX8.1
ac97 audio
AH2 was really slow to load as compared to the above machines
frame rates 5-15 flying ,firing with tracers on, and straffing
28fps in the tower
75fps looking up
now as is, the game is playable on this machine , but it does suffer in the fps department, Graphics look as good as the gf 64mb cards
No errors starting the game.
