before the patch, i played with the lowest resolution, no aa,no ssao,vsyinc on,
buildings detail on med,buildings amount on high,textures on med,landshading on low,no shadows,everything else on max....with these indeed low settings, i had steady 40-60fps no matter where, but most of the time 60.only over london at rooftop height i had 40 fps.no stutters at all

no after the patch, with the same settings, the fps stayed pretty much the same, but i decided to experiment with them again.i found that with textures to high and landshading on high, i still got 40fps average,and over london with 12 enemy spits at 100meters steady 30fps...so i decided to enable shadows again.this is indeed a performance hit,but i have less stutters with it enabled since the patch.before the patch,i had massive stutters, and trackir was pretty shaky with shadows.no i have pretty steady 30-40fps over the channel and over land 30 average.oh i forgot to mention, that i now set landdetail to low...since the patch and the added haze, the difference is not that apparent anymore.
ah btw, i play with full screen

oh about the stutters....only minor stutters at the beginning of a mission.i hate them so i prefer to lower my settings and have smooth gameplay instead of eyecandy and a slideshow.
I appretiate your response.

To be fair, i am playing with far better settings than you and my gmae looks much worse. FPS wise it works ok, even with everithing on max i get 25+ FPS, but my problem is stutters.

i will try your settings and see if i get no stutters. Thank you.

EDIT:
Arghhhh . I DONT GET IT. i put your settigns and my fps actually drops to 5...
