All I can hope for is a steady stream of patches that don't take too long to make :)

Considering the think that the developers recomend is reducing your building to get high framerates your probably doing fairly good.
Before release the developers kept on saying a hi end machine will be running on medium settings at release.

Cheers!

If you want to run this game with unlimited buildings then I am afraid your PC is not "High End" enough for this kind of expectations! Your PC in a few years, maybe.

As far as the resolution is concerned, try first to play the game in Window mode (with settings set to medium exect model=high, damage=high) and get a feeling about it.

Your PC is high enough and should not be having problems.

Actually, unlimited buildings has no impact on my fps, I have a I7 920 and an 8800gt 512k, a few others have found the same, shadows are a big problem though

This software is a piece of crap at current build versions

The multicore CPU coding is very poor

The multicore GPU coding is very poor

I dont see any cool DX11 features like tesselation in there either

The patch did next to nothing for me. The real patch worthy of being released is one that fixes SLI and one that improves multicore utilisation.

The engine itself isnt all that great and I guess it wont be until the next major release that we will see stuff like tesselation being used to good effect

My system has 16 logical processors at 4GHz each and I have three GTX 480s in SLI.

Way too subjective a statement, it doesn't actually say anything and people will start calling you a troll if you start off posts like that.

All my cores are being used with one being close to 100%

You really should read the development updates.

In the deveopment updates they actually state that SLI has issues and can actually lead to reduced performance at the moment so maybe you should disable SLI in this application till it gets patched.

My system is nowhere near as powerful as your and since the updates it's cleared up a lot of issues and is running as good as ROF and DCS:A10

Little details make this sim one of the best I have ever played, It's fun and immersive.

With continued patching and resolution of peoples issues it's going to be the best.

Cheers and hope your problems get resolved!

Those who still have stutters try putting Buildings to Unlimited (w. low detail) or my settings below.

Do not complain if you did not put shadows to low or off ))

I had a looksee last night using the Fullscreen option unchecked (ie running @ a windowed 1024 x 768)

frame rate tripled and in some cases 5 x increase.
stutters were virtually non-existent on the second run through the same Quick Mission.



downside is a 1024 x 768 (4:3 ratio) window in the top left corner of a 1920 x 1080 desktop

Any chance it'd run better in windowed mode as opposed to full screen ?

Read the post above you. YES it will run better. I dont thing you need windowed mode maybe just lower resolution in game settings to 1024 x768 or 1440 x 760 I think it is. Report back with your results. And leave settings on high.

Do you have all details set to high like buildings, trees etc etc.. those screens look pretty good. What you get over london like that with all things on high.
