Dear friends,

No mini patch today.

We're working along the following lines:

* Obviously, fixing all reported issues encountered during testing.
* DX9 support
* Completing all other incomplete graphics and performance improvements

We're also working through an unexpectedly large volume of reported issues with the flight model.

The next version of the patch, which will take a bit more work, will contain all of the above. We'll keep you updated.

Thank you again for your tireless efforts in helping us make the game better.

Have a great weekend!

Sounds like its going to be a while yet...

Really dont know why they are bothering with DX9.

Conquering DX 9 gives bragging rites to a programmer in that sub culture

B6 was pressed for an update but truth is there isn't much to say- its still not working, much head scratching ongoing. Give it a couple of weeks, I bet you will get back to the good stuff then. A picture of a Russian hedge perhaps.

Very astute comment

How long will this sim take to get out of Alpha? its been over 7 months now since the last official patch and 15 months since release and were still in bloody Alpha state.

I was test flying the other day, quite low and the textures just looked horrible, plus terrible pop up clouds, stutters and low FPS with clouds, smoke and particles mean im hardly playing at all now.

Never before in the field of computer simulations was so long taken by so many to fix so few...

Cheers

Nico

Fixed that for ya!

Don't they post BoM pics any more?
