I have a day off from work and was hoping to get some WW1 gaming in,but my game is currently unplayable.
Since it is a little bit after noon on the east coast of the U.S.A, it must be just about quitting time in France,and I'm a little concerned that there will not be a patch today. :(
Any news? :blink:

Thank you!

As an American, today should be the start of a very long weekend for you. Hopefully, you will get game time in before Monday.

Happy Thanksgiving.

I may have missed it in the list, but thre is a huge improvement in RAM utilization. My RAM use has dropped by about 50%. Draging an dropping seemed smoother too.

Bravo!
