Stutter

[jayrc]

What could be the cause of a stutter when the flight loads, and enemy plane crashes, it seems to be when the text loads on the side of the screen, if I disable it in the conf.ini it goes away, the flight load stutter is still there.

[jayrc]

the more settings I increase the more it stutters, has steady 59-60fps except in cities and when there's alot of planes

system specs:

intel core duo 3.0 ghz
gt 240 512mb video card
4 gb mismatched 2 477mhz 2 533mhzram 3.2 gb showing
windows xp 32 sp3
300gb hard drive
350 psu

Time to upgrade... Running a game that's been updated on tech that is more than 2 years old is not going to cut it. Sorry need to spend a little cash... I would aim at a new Video card.

[jayrc]

I'm gonna wait for cliffs of dover to upgrade:grin:

was thinking :

windows 7 64 bit
gtx 460 or higher video card
amd phenom II x4 cpu
8 gb ram to start
550+ watt psu

think it will run it?

NO ONE knows, be patient.

Back to your actual problem, post your conf.

Do you think a new video card alone with a power supply upgrade of coarse, would bring my system up to snuff? Or is there more than one problem with my system?

[KG26_Alpha]

Your GPU fails miserably for IL2 1946.

An old 8800 Ultra would be better.

Or

9800GTX+

As a minimum for perfect mode

[swiss]

Yep, but please buy a used video card for $30-40.

Why: You will need a new system pretty soon anyway
