Problem here is that I would hate to go out and get the add-on only to discover that the multiplayer is still not going to work :(

Thanks for the responses fellas! I have Cablemodem broadband 3.0 Mbps (downstream) / 384 Kbps (upstream). Usually I have flawless gameplay in IL2/Forgotten Battles, but I have never had a good game online in LOMAC. Usually all the other aircraft are warping so badly that they rocket into space or over the horizon at lightspeed and then spring back. Makes hitting them with anything impossible. Offline in single player my framerate is great averaging about 60fps or so I guess, as I have the following hardware: Asus A8N SLI Deluxe nForce4 motherboard AMD64 3500+ XP processor 1 GB Corsair Twinx CAS2 RAM ATI X850 XT PCI-E platinum Soundblaster Audigy2 Live! Last night after a great game of FB I thought I would take a look at LOMAC on Hyperlobby and saw alot of guys there. I jumped on a server with 6 people and again saw all the warping but I started thinking it had to be on my end because there is no way the 6 other guys on the server would want to stay on the server with that amount of warping going on.

Can anyone tell me if the multiplayer (connection, stability, warping) has improved at all with 1.1 over 1.02? It could be that I have just not been doing it right in the first place, as I have always seen people in Hyperlobby doing online LOMAC, but every server I join I see the other players warping all over the place. This makes me think it is not going to work out, as it would make near impossible to track and shoot anything. I am more used to the smoothness of IL2/FB online. Are the people who fly this sim regularily online enjoy smooth gameplay like those who fly IL2/FB? I have set my network client to 128k/128k (as is suggestion in the sticky on the LOMAC forum) and I typically join servers with a ping no higher than 150 but I see the warping all the time.

Cool thanks for the tip! 8)

Given a choice I would get the PCI-E with the SLI option so that later on you have the ability to upgrade by taking advantage of the SLI feature of those cards. But as it stands currently, there is very little performance difference between AGP and PCI-E, but AGP does NOT support SLI.
