A new beta patch was released today:

Quote:

[59842] Reduced town/village stutter (fixed streaming of textures used by Super shader).
[59808] Fixed: DOF in 3D scope view
[59741] Analogue throttle working for helicopters as well.
[59736] Fixed: Startup sounds are not spatial and stick to audio channels
[59715] Covering soldier in grass ("Grass layer")
[59691] Improved: Small hit be ignored by hitpoints (configurable by minimalHit)
[59668] Improved: Hitpoint can pass only a part of the hit to the total damage (passthrough setting no longer ignored).

Nice to see improvements such as performance in villages, Grass layer and analogue throttle.

I can hide in grass now from AI and humans? Not sure about AI, but yes on humans. What it does is bring back the ArmA1 distance grass layer - since the grass doesn't render at distance, the terrain is actually elevated a little bit when viewed at a distance, so anyone laying prone far away appears half-sunken into the terrain. It's a good compromise, considering the alternative (up until now) has been no grass and people sticking out like sore thumbs on bare terrain.
