And, yes, there's an alternative to DCG, it's called BoB2

I thought BoB2 was a whole game, not a mod?

I don't know where I'd find the cash for a new game, but anyway I did a search for reviews. Here's an extract from the first one I started reading:

If these bugs were small - a misaligned texture here, a briefing typo there - then we'd happily forgive and forget. Sadly they are actually rather large - lock-ups, crashes, mysteriously low frame-rates - the kind of stuff that drives a man very quickly back into the arms of Forgotten Battles and Pacific Fighters.

I was under the impression that the patches fixed most of those

It was quite stable when I played it (Then again, I might just be lucky)

It's a shame most flight sims don't have a great campaign like for instance RB3D had

Well I have to hand it to Mr Lowengrin, he takes criticism pretty well. I sent him a good old fashioned rant, and he just calmly asked a couple of questions and then sent me a new DCG beta to test.
:shifty: :up:

Seems okay, too. So far...
