See here.... http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=63964Although there are a few issues I'm not happy about in beta 4, it is now available for download. Please note that it is still a beta and NOT a release candidate. Beta 4: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/index.php?scr=products&end_pos=135&lang=enTwo versions of the patch will be available:- Beta 3 to Beta 4 Patch. If you have a Beta 3 already installed, you can apply this patch to it. - Beta 4 full install. This is a full version of the beta and should NOT be installed over a previous version. (RECOMMENDED) As in previous betas, download the setup and ALL bin files to a folder. Then run the setup file and follow instructions. Some other notes:1- Performance improvement for beta 4 was that all units now have Levels Of Detail (LOD). In later betas we'll optimize other areas, particularly effects and EDM models that are having a big, negative impact. However, some things will always hurt frame rate like TGP / Mav video (have to render the game a 2nd or 3rd time!) or viewing high poly objects (like A-10C, F-15, etc.) up close. No way around that. 2- We know that there are cluster bomb issues and they are still being worked on. We've had to redo much of this code to support new features like HOF and this has resulted in a buggy weapon... for now. 3- When you run the game for the first time, you will likely have a long (4-15 min) white screen while the shaders are compiling. The game has not crashed. 4- We hope to have a change log soon. 5- We hope to have a quick beta 5 available before the end of the year. 6- If you have a font problem in the GUI, disable AA in your graphics card properties. 7- Some of our testers have reported installer issues. If you encounter this, we apologize and ask that you wait for beta 5. 8- To confirm beta version, please check file dates in your A-10C dir. The GUI indication is not correct. If you encounter a problem, please for the love of god first consult the FAQ at: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=58551Happy Holidays, Matt Nate

Well, good luck if you can actually download it. I log in and the patches disappear so I log out and when I click a download (the B3 - B4 one) it asks me for my username and password over and over.....

That's odd, I went straight in and had no problems with the torrent (apart from my ripping rural connection!).
That Farrow bloke you executed today, are you sure he's dead?
Well I chopped his head off, that usually does the trick.
Yes, don't get clever with me Baldrick. I just thought you might have lopped off a leg or something by mistake.
No, the thing I chopped off had a nose.

All I can say is, thank God for the German FTP servers. Without them I'd be downloading for days instead of a few hours ( getting the full version).

Same.
I tried for a couple of shots. 1st time went to church, had dinner out, came back and only had 2%.
Retried, watched a flic, same.
Got it coo0kin' now and am close to half way in an hour.
Wazzup with the US HTTP's?
The FTP's asking for a password just means they're maxxed out...

Thanks for the heads up, Nate. That's great news just hours before I get to open my Thrustmaster Warthog and Cougar MFDs.

I seem to get worse performance now  and I actually like Beta 3 with the fog as it ran great. Seems that the old problem I used to have with Lock On is back for me when the gun rounds strike the ground I get huge slowdown and even taking the details right down does nothing

I notice that they recommend a full install,rather than the beta 3 to 4 patch to reduce any problems.
My original install is completely vanilla,nothing altered,so will it matter really?
I don't fancy that 4.46 gig download on my crappy line.
I usually get large downloads from work,but I am now off for 10 days.Grrrr.
If I decide to wait and get the full beta 4 and I have to un-install the original game,will that cost an activation?
I can't remember how to un-install to save on activations.Anyone jog my memory,thanks.
If you watch Jaws backwards, it's a heart warming story about a shark that spits out so many people that they have to open a beach.

Anyone care to teach me how to install Beta 4 without having to uninstall Beta 3? I'd like to have both on my system for comparison.
