Actually, everything started in here :)

Ooops, hard to keep up :)


Admin, delete this threadh please

Noooo, some very useful and humerous posts. The config file is a monster....

Junior, you tryin to make me look bad? :confused:

Yep, credit should go to adonys here - he paved the way and helped a lot!

I am too downloading the RU steam version NOW!!!thanks :)

Downloading now!!! I will learn russian after 10 years playing IL2!

Ил-2 Штурмовик: Битва за Британию (Steam-версия) POWERRRRRRRRR!!

Actually, it's strange to see that the russian version kept the Battle of Britain name. I guess the western BoB was copyrighted, and UBI couldn't use it, so changed it to CoD.

Well, I would find God's sense of humor rather wicked, wouldn't you agree? To spend 10 years playing IL2 on eastern front without learning russian, and having to actually do it in for the Battle of Britain :D

Fourteen American dollars? I'm in.

Cool! Let us know how you go Mr Plough.

lol you will remember the menu selections within a couple hours just by position :)

its the key mapping that is the brain destroyer. i gave up trying to find the fire key so i could map it to the joystick

lol the space bar is my friend again

Ok, currently getting the download.

I had a yuplay account from Wings of Prey, I bought 50 Yums of credit using a card and then logged into the www.yuplay.ru site using my int'l Yuplay account and spent the Yums on Il-2 Battle of Britainski. This seemed to bypass the whole security ammount thing.

I really hope this works out for everyone,because ubi are going to throw a fit after the weekend,with people in the west bypassing their wonderful company...

I am very tempted to do it but if steam check the IP and then bans it I will be stuffed when I get my CE :(

If anyone downloading this.

REMEMBER.

DO NOT register the russian version on your existing Steam account.

U will not be able to register the "real" version at the same account later.

Create a new.


Everyone may know this already i just though repeating it cant hurt.

Oops.

Better cancel my pre-order and set up a new account for the Western version. (face palm)

LOL! That thought made me giggle a little, I'd love to see an eventual reaction on this. How can such a douche publisher be so successful?...because they're douche I guess, kinda like Activision and their lovely CEO Bobby "Adolf" Kotick.:)

Everything going fine with the russian version.

This game got potential!!!!

Give us a report Gunkan. You're getting 60fps there?

The 60FPS is not a real feeling of 60FPS, it's like 15FPS in IL2, sometimes 30FPS in the meaning of IL2 1.40. The game don't go fluid: I7 950, 12Gb, GTX260 Gigabyte, Win7 64bits. Small loading times compared to RoF.

But the game got potential. Directly turn of the Trees in the config.ini (trees=-1, grass=-1).

This game got a real potential, you wouldn't have never saw something like that.
- The IA is better than me :D, really good one. Boom and Zoom really well!
- The engine control is really hard, REALLY HARD. I always played at full difficulty from the beggining. The pitch control is hard, and very easy to damage the engine.
- All cockpit clickable... I LOVE IT!!!
- Damage model... even better than Rise of Flight.
- It's so beautiful...

Thanks Gunkan m8!
I get the DVD at the end of this week. Good luck Oleg and team on a speedy patch. If they can get it sorted like RoF has been sorted then we are all onto a winner

:o By the screenshot posted I take it you did it with the filter disabled? If this thing doesn`t run smooth on a Gf GTX260 class card then I got nothing to do with it...probably unplayable with my HD4870. And along with 30% other potential CLoD customers I might say.

It's in and it's on and it works. Unfortunately I have to go and do something none CloD related. I'll report back as soon as I can.

I can't disable the Epilepsy filter, at least i can't see the difference.

I use this on config.ini:

[BOB]
AntiEpilepcy =0

But i got the same speed on game. No matter what i change, i got always the same speed. Speed don't means FPS. I got hight FPS but low speed or fluid feeling.

U disabled the Cloud somethingsomething in Steam?


Edit: Steam cloud

I just had a go but there seems to be a problem which results in a black screen. It's not just during flight, the models aren't visible in the selection menus either, aircrew or aircraft, it's just black.

Of course!


The terrain is like IL2:

Are you changing the config.ini in steam or the one located C:/Users/<user_name>/Documents/1C/IL2...

According to Adonys you change the one on your C:/Users

- AntiEpilepcy = 0 (right under [BOB] section)

lol, it will be fun to see their reaction after all of this though I doubt any will matter to them. Heck they will probably try to sue 1c for not getting their money's worth in sales. The company seems to be trying to deliberately destroy this sim for whatever reason. I'm pretty confident I can speak for most of us when I say "Burn in he!! UBI!"

Flyingbullseye

I did it, i don't have another config.ini. But i think this is not working, at least for my.

Nvidia 9000 series card bug
 

Looked into the black screen thing, it's a problem with addressing with dx10 enabled Nvidia 9000 series cards.

Fix (if you can figure it out, I'm still wrapping my head around google translated Russian) is located on this and subsequent pages.

I think the whole "disabling" epilepsy filter by adding this line to config.ini is just a placebo. There is no difference in performance at all.

Seems a wonderful idea. Learning a new language is fun this way. I spent a few hours learning the russian alfabet a year ago with youtube and am already able to read most of it, just don't understand 99% of it.

Count me in. And maybe we can help each other with translating.

reading the confUser.ini on a dual monitor setup, it's quite fast to compare with the menu structure which control has which meaning.

Here's a funny one, they haven't made up their own word for it.

Джойстик

:-)

After testing it, i feels the same.

your system specs?

as far as i know its AntiEpilepcy=0 not AntiEpilepcy = 0 and it smoothed the game out for me :)

@thee_oddball

I really think it doesn't make a difference. When you write "AntiEpilepcy = 0" after you run the game, it will be condensed automatically in conf.ini to "AntiEpilepcy=0". I still find it hard to believe it makes any difference at all.

I was under the impression that its the 500mb patch that they released for the russians that suppose to fix (get rid of) the epilepsy filter.

Its my understanding that it has not solved the problem with the freezes/stutter and the poor FPS.

My understanding is that the filter itself is not the problem, but rather what MG had to do to allow the filter to work properly with the game.

MG hacking of their own game is what is causing the low FPS not the filter per se.

That is why MG made it clear that the fault for the poor performance lay with their code and that alone.


Bryan.

aww i almost feel bad for the filter now...

:rolleyes:

@Biggs

Let's see after a patch with the removal with the filter comes, but I have a bad feeling that there might be some other problems with performance as well..

Let's hope the 64-bit true multithreaded .exe is almost finished.

@biggs Got any more of those funny avatars? :-)

this is exactly why im not getting my panties in a bunch over all this yet...

the dev team already knows they have more to sort out... and like i said before, April 26 is a month away... things will eventually be sorted out.
