I just got back from my first flight in the AH2 beta arena (Beta v. 35) in a while. Many improvements to note but:
When inflight to a fight I was getting frame rates in the 70's (max at 75). As I approached objects below me and attempted a slight turn my screen froze; no other a/c were in my line of sight, and most a/c were several thousand feet below and to my front. I noticed also my frame rates had dropped to 37.
When engaged with nme a/c I had several screen freezes.
A few weird things: As I checked my 6 view I saw what appeared as tracer flashes but there were no nme or other a/c in my sector.
Sounds were good; I am using my AH1 Mitsu sounds.
Views: no problems; I am using my AH1 views and settings
The terrain: (NDIsles) weird looking; trees pop up and they look stringy. As I approached mountains they too popped up abruptly.
My system specs are:
Dell 8300
P-4 3 Ghz
512 MB ram
SB ?? sound card
Cable user
etc. etc.
I hope this helps
