1.04e

[Fixxxer]

Another new beta update available.

Seems they have fixed the levitating issues and wheels etc, also the heli only seems to sink into the scenery on long grass which is how it would be but I've only had a quick go, smoke also quits after a crash.

What about the graphics/motion? Are they smooth? 1.04d was jerky on my high-end Vista PC, but 1.04c was fine.

I'll have a look later... it's an easy downgrade if it doesn't help!

Thanks for the heads-up.

Can't really compare xp to vista plus I'm running it only on a minimum spec gfx card so have to turn sunglow off, shdows on low and vertical sync off. Everything else is on high etc including highest resolution and anti-ailasing and it seems smooth enough to me, the sunglow seems to be the thing that really bogs it down.

Just been playing with 1.04e
It's alot better, nothing instant to moan about as far as the sim is concerned

Calibration has changed back to having to center joy sticks
The updating of new models also changed

Thanks for posting the update, I just got back from phoenix and was going to do it

Keep sending in Any bugs you find, but i think this version has nailed most of the problematic ones!!

It seems quite stable on mine, although had a few initial glitches:

1. Got it going, started a session. Worked for a short while then bombed out with an option to send error report to microshaft.

2. Was working, flying the Pitts, then it 'stuck' on full left aileron, and on checking 'Your Controls' my aileron had somehow stopped functioning. Deleted radio profile, started again and it's ok now.

Other than those niggles, seems good.

Has anyone seen something very strange when you have the windsock enabled and turn on the landing target or F3C layout?

(but especially the landing target)

You'll know what I mean if you see it.

I'm using Windows XP, Nvidia graphics (one a 6800 and the other a 7400 notebook) and I have seen the same thing on two different PC's, one with version 1.04c and the other with 1.04e.

Disappointed with 1.04e
Been play for a couple of hours now

Besides the FLYING FIELD is still too dark (Hello Phoenix)

I STILL CAN'T FIND ANYTHING TO MOAN ABOUT

Are you talking about the scenery black fuzzy area - missing scenery piece - near your feet (I've seen it on the Auto comp only, at the moment)?

Hah, no problem here!! The last download completed in 7 minutes. Broadband, pah!!! more like a stinking great big fat pipe!!

Just heard back from the boys that the glitch I saw will be fixed within today with an updated 1.04e....so get downloading!!!

robgt,
No, the landing target floats in mid air and waggles about in time to the windsock if you put some wind and turbulence on.

[robgt]

LOL
Thats classic - I've definitely not seen that!!

Cheers,
Rob
