Anyone know if the new 1.01 patch addressed this anoying issue that I had to apply this Mod to Fix as well???

Great thanks!

I'm running Vista 64 -bit with a single 4850, 512mb card. Should I stay with 8.12 or Upgrade to 9.4 and/or would there be a benefit to switching to 9.4? I'm of the understanding of "If it ain't Broke" rule? So with this added info what would you all recommend? Thinking of upgrading to a 1 gig 4890 though w/ PSU upgrade????

Which "Latest" ATI Catalyst Driver do you all use/recommend? Are the latest drivers compatable with BS or are there problems? Thanks :thumbup:

I wanna see this GRASS in BS!!! Who cares about grass when your in an A-10 at 5oo+AGL and 180+Kts... I wannna see the grass when I'm Hovering 10ft off the ground in my Heli!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wanna some GRASS like in the latest Dev UPDATE!!!! Who cares about grass when your flying an A-10 at 200kts and 500+AGL. I wanna see the grass when I'm hovering my Heli 10ft above it!!!

Good Job! I'll do the same!!!

O.K. this makes sense now "Hitting Headrest" when trying to move head back. I just prefer the default view to be a touch rearward when I fly for better situational awareness and to be able to see the full front windshield/HUD and the Shaval camera at the same time. I hate how the default view, although probably realistic, only gives you about half of each. Thanks everyone for clearing this up for me. :thumbup:

Is the new TiR 5 software for my TiR 4 Pro going to improve the functionality (reading/tracking/stability) of the device or does it just add a more user friendly user interface???

So BS doesn't have 6DoF cause Zoom isn't useable with TiR??? :mad:

I'm having problems with the ZOOM Out Function of my new TiR Pro clip? It works great in BS but for some reason I can't zoom back from the default view/center position??? I can zoom in fine but when I try to move my head back to Zoom Out it moves my view back a real tiny amount then I hit an invisible wall of some sort? Tried maxing my zoom silders to no avail in TiR Programing? Does BS support moiving your head back to zoom back from the default view?

Found that Lowering Light Filtering to lowest setting really improved the jerkieness/lag. However I'm finding that I Can't zoom out real well and the views sometimes freeze for a split secong when zooming in looking down or leaning right and left strangely enough. Any other suggestions????

Setting up my new TiR with BS and noticed that it's recognized in the "Controls" section under "Axis Commands". Do you all recommend fine tuning the TiR via "Axis Fine Tuning" in the Game Controller OPTIONS menu or through the TiR Device only or are the best results a combination of the two? For some reason my TiR Panning sems very laggy in BS, so far, compared to FSX. I'm going to try running BS in Affinity Mode next too see if that helps. Anyone found their TiR initially LAGGY when set up in BS? Thanks!

So why has STEAM not let me log in to play Empire: Total War for the past two days straight!!!! I keep getting a: "Server too busy message please try your request again in a couple of hours"! Type message... I guess the installation of the new patch has overloaded the Steam servers effectively locking me out of the game for the past two days straight. At least w/o Steam I could at least play the game and wait to install the stinkin' patch!!! ARRRRRRGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry but once I pay for a game I want to play it when I want too not when a network will ALLOW me access.

Running the STEAM program in the background constantly having to read and write game data via your Internet Connection, on an already FPS intensive CFS... No Thanks... I can see my FPS taking an even bigger dive?

Whats the reason for turning off FF if you don't have a FF stick? IS there a benefit for doing this???

For those with Track IR? Do you recommend mapping any of the TIR button presses "F9" etc to the HOTAS...

Not a "Pause" but a "Freeze" command ala Falcon 4.0 where you can still manipulate cockpit systems and switches while paused. This has to be the most missed feature for me from the Falcon series.

Seems like I as well as everyone else are getting this graphical glitch on the tarmac. It's amazing that such a detailed sim would suffer forever with this ugly BUG!

I just wish this apparent Cloud Shadows Bug from the early LOMAC days would get fixed! :cry:

B.T.W. Any chance this is going to be addressed in the upcomming patch? I realy miss my shadows... :(

Seems everywhere I turn I'm getting some different information on the best way to enter a hover and utilize the auto-hover to keep the bird as stable as possible. Do you try to enter as stable a hover as possible yourself before hitting auto-hover (i know you ideally want to be below 10kts) or do you bang in the auto-hover from straight and level slow speed flight? Also I'm having difficulty trimming for hover, it seems.... In auto-hover do you treat "trim" the same way and should you enable alt-hold mode. It seems that if I'm in a stable hover and I try to retrim to turn to a new facing to select a new target I'm getting into an uncontrollable slip or spin. Is it recommending to disable pitch control in AP to get your nose down to fire weapons? What's the best options for targeting and fighting from a hover position? Basically I really need a hovering tutorial? :doh:

Thanks for the informative post. :thumbup: However, I've followed your directions exactly but still get the occasional judder when zoomed halfway in or out. Still wondering what's causing this?????

Alright!!!!!! Now that's what I'm talking about! Roll on that patch!

Overall the graphics, especially vehicles and infantry are very well done. However, I'm seeing some big inconsistancies in my game for some vehicles that look like a holdover from the original Flanker series. Are these vehicles going to be updated anytime in the future to better match the excellent vehicles alreday in the game? See below for an example:
