Default Performance Poll BETA PATCH v1.06.17582

For my setup it is not so good. Definitely worse than before patching.

Update:

Interesting, after I disabled the crossfire my FPS doubled and stutters significantly diminished.

New problem became on/off blinking of exterior plane texture. Plane textures would disappear and you can see the pilot inside the plane.

Definite crossfire issues.

Update:

ATI CrossFire Users - see the following post for a possible solution:


http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=31805

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

Thumbs down

Nothing has changed and it still lags in the cockpit worse than in the outside view.
DCS has my business now.. This thing is just going backwards anymore and i'am sad to see it happen.

RIP IL2 Sturmovik

(I guess this is what happens when you get rich off the backs of others..)

Better performance for me. I use Vsync so my FPS is limited to 60, but even so i see that it's a lot smoother. Less hiccups, almost no stutters at all and pretty consistent frame rates, much more than in the previous version.

The bugs i've seen are exactly what they patch notes say is unfinished: some blurry cockpit textures here and there mostly.

For me it does exactly what it says.

I'm running a resolution of 1680x1050 and mostly medium settings on this:
i7 920
3GB RAM
Ati 4890 1GB

As you can see it's far from cutting edge, just a normal middle range PC.

What i did was follow my usual patching method:
1) Have stem verify the integrity of the installed files. This makes sure you have a clean copy of the previous version, so that you can patch on top of it.
2) Have steam defrag the game files.
3) Go to the documents\1c softclub\etc folder and delete the file in the cache and cache\shaders folders.
4) Extract the patch in the main installation folder.

Then i go back to the installation folder dig a bit into the subfolders (can't remember which one it is exactly) and rename the logo.wmv so that it doesn't interfere with my Ati card.

After that i just run the sim, wait for it to rebuild the cache and start flying/testing.

I've been flying on ATAG for 5 hours straight without restarting the sim and most of it was in close proximity and formation flying to twin engined aircraft. No CTDs at all.

The other guys had a sortie going with 4-5 Ju88s just as i was joining the server. I joined up with them on the next one, we had 3 88s, plus an escort of two 109s and a 110. Again, no CTDs. After that i made a few sorties in a 110 along with 2-3 more people (not really in formation but overall flying in visual distance).

The way i see it overall the sim performs only slightly better in terms of FPS on my PC, but this FPS is much more consistent and the sim doesn't crash at all.

Middle of the road rig. Probably matching what developers use? I wonder if people with more recent hardware are having more issues?

Nice report Blackdog, but please now have a go at flying for the RAF in a Spitfire, and witness the fact that you have no throttle control.

logo.wmv is loocated in C/Programfiles(x86)/Steam/Steamapps/common/il2cliffs of dover/parts/core/GUI
