Steps for Creating a Custom COD Application CrossFire Profile
 
I was having severe stutters and extremely low FPS with my crossfire setup. Creating a custom crossfire profile greatly improved this to the levels before the patch or even better!

I am using 12.4 drivers with the latest CAP

Steps for creating a custom crossfire profile using the Catalyst Control Center :

1. Open CCC, click on 3D Application Settings, and scroll down to the section called "AMD CrossFire Mode for 3D Applications". Select option: "Use AMD Pre-defined Profile".

2. Select LostPlanetDx10.exe application profile.

3. Scroll back up to the top of the Application Profiles section and click <<New Application>> and Save.

4. Find COD folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover" and open Launcher.exe.

5. Done. (it would not hurt to reboot your system at this time.)

With this tweak I am seeing ~75% improvement in FPS and a significant reduction of stuttering!

See my blog for same same instructions with pictures:

Oddly I don't have AMD CrossfireX under the Gaming tab?

Try selecting "Advanced View" under preferences.

OMFG i love you 70-80 fps atm :D

I have advanced views selected, probably due to my dual chip card.

Congratulations! What is the fps increase compared to a single gpu enabled? Are there any stutters?

For me it was a ~75% increase! Stuttering was significantly reduced, but not eliminated.

With only pseudo full screen on (Dual Chip card) I had a fps of 30-40.

I don't have the time to do a full test but I still had a reduction in fps when going near large towns (obviously ;) ) and dogfights :(, when I have more time I will post more detailed results.

Just for the .exe that you choose.

I have just done this and while I get smoother frame rates I get a lot of screen flicker and the land switches between a dark colour and the normal colour. Any ideas?
