Attention ATI card users - Ubi Splash Screen

[lonewulf]

I noticed on another thread that there was some debate as to whether the Ubi Splash screen that runs when the game is loading (the spinning globe thing) does, or does not, have an impact on the performance of ATI graphics cards. It was suggested in the discussion that this issue only really applied to the older ATI cards, and that at any rate, the issue has now been fixed via some patch or other.

Well, I use a HD 7950. In both the pre and post patch game, I gained about 10-15 fps by deleting the splash screen. So, if you run an ATI card, and you have not already deleted the splash screen, I strongly recommend that you do so.

To delete the screen go [directory where game stored] steam\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\parts\core\gui, and then delete the logo icon.
