LuftManu Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 Good going! Specially: 7. Updated texture cache system, it should reduce stutters in heavy load MP missions significantly; 8. Brightness and size of very distant aircraft LODs made more uniform (it differed too much on some aircraft); Thanks, Dev team! 8

itsbillyfrazier Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 Many thanks, a nice surprise. Interested to see the work done on the river banks of Rhineland map, one of the first things i noticed when i flew it and was a bit disappointed, i look forward to seeing the improvement.
Marianggello Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 Thank you very much! Amazing update. ??

Zappatime Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 Thanks and a very happy new year to all the team!
Hartigan Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) What an unexpected surprise!! First Jason's briefing room topic and now this! Thank you Devs! Edited January 21, 2020 by Hartigan
1CGS Sneaksie Posted January 21, 2020 1CGS Posted January 21, 2020 Schiphol should be fine: If you don't see it, make sure you don't have Surface.dat files in your Rheinland map folders (you may have old ones there if you saved missions in the editor before and have mods enabled). 1 1 3
Jason_Williams Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 7. Updated texture cache system, it should reduce stutters in heavy load MP missions significantly; Let me clarify this a little bit. We think this will help with online stutters, but further testing with the public build will be key. It seemed to perform pretty well in Beta, but MP Beta testing is not so easy with a smaller group.

Redwo1f Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 Really solid list of improvements/adjustments/fixes. Thank you so much!

Jason Understood. Will be flying online with the 'Pigs and wring this out and report back.

Hanu Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 Just now, Sneaksie said: Yes, the correct ones are inside the GTP archives. And the same goes with the other maps also I guess? After deleting those files the new airfields on Rheinland did show up. Thanks.
sevenless Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 Thanks. Things are getting better and better. Any info on coniferous trees for the Rhineland map? They are in Battle of Moscow. Any plans to port them over?

Seems that there is some significant improvement in the general stuttering experienced in MP. Stuttering was reduced and the improvement instantly noticeable from a quick sortie on Berloga during general flight where it was most noticeable in previous game versions even without lots of action onscreen. Lets see if others notice the same. 2 3

I can echo this. I know Trip is in VR, but Im running TrackIR and noticed a signifigant improvement to the stutters. I have yet to try the new map though. That one was the worst for me online.

MikhaVT Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 I wonder if the Panther will have its engine lifespan simulated similar to what is currently done for aircraft. Completely destroying it if operated too heavily for too long to discourage players from always using max throttle. ? 1
