Fresh install,
Patched, and running with a NVidia 7950GT and two gigs of DDR2 on a Duel core. I'm getting beautiful graphics now that are fluctuating from the upper 60's down to late 20's but not too worrisome.
Antaliasing set at 4x,and anistropic (application controlled),Image setting at high Quality,and Vertical Sync set at ON.....Not too shabby at all.
Beautiful graphics.
Set up a Career and on my way out to the Solomans ran endless drills.especially different dive,procedures.I'm a lot happier with the results.
The dev team obviously have been working very hard.It shows.
I want you folks to know I've cooled off about the US medal issue....Neal.
What I havent said is, that Dan from the Dev team PM contacted me last week twice over at SimHQ and we yacked about the issue of bogus medals .It is a bit of a long story...you can go over there and read some of the posts by others.The Dev team were rather intimidated by a US Gov Office here in the States...So...
After apologies (Mine), Dan told me that he considered this issue extremely important and asked me to use my digital camera again and send him the info.I did.
He was on his way out for a much needed vacation and passed all the stuff over to another friend of his on the team.
I had a very negative reaction to SHIV when it was released and wasn't looking at the larger panorama.
I wasn't looking being patient.
It wasn't until guys like Beery plus several other mod makers made the sim much more playable that I started to get the message.
This patch to me seems to really help things along.Kudos to the Dev's.
