Cliffs of Dover Technical FAQ

[Gamekeeper]

Rather than just blowing off steam :p how about providing a constructive post describing exactly the issues you are experiencing in a seperate forum post, that way somebody may be able to help you.

Thanks for the information Luthier. If you can do a small technical update like this (what's being fixed by you and what we can fix ourselves) once a week i think the situation will be drastically improved, both in regards to game performance and agitation levels
Most of the old-timers know you're in it for the long haul, but it's good to also let the newcomers know the game will be continuously worked on and reinforce that belief, so that bad press is kept to a minimum.

I think the default key to enable/disable the click-pit is F10.

EU version Dl over night so tried the updated russian version last night and flew a quick mission, and there was a wonam on my lap in my cockpit...? Nice as it was it made it rather difficult to see what I was shooting at Funny though. looking forward to reading in english what I did to make this happen

Maybe you selected the Spitfire that's used in the Spitgirl mission?
In one of Luthier's interviews on youtube the stats screen of the interface was shown, detailing what kind of aircraft where flown and so on. One of the aircraft was called the heartbreaker and many people think it's the Spitfire used in the Spit-Girl mission.

I'm not sure since i don't have the game in my hands yet, but i think it's a separate 3d model that you can select and it has the girl built into the model.

P.S. When we get the Me-262 in some future expansion i demand a similar mission for the Luftwaffe. I have a feeling that flying with Swallow-girl will be much more satisfying than flying with Spit-girl

2. Can you give us a comprehensive guidance for ProcessAffinityMask settings (what values have what effect)?

Somebody (not me) posted this in a differnt thread in the forum, I hope it helps:

Look there ProcessAffinityMask option in section [rts]
Remove the sign ; in front of him.

And exposes its value in accordance with the number of cores a processor, namely:
2 cores - 3
3 core - 7
4 cores - 15
6 cores - 63
8 cores - 255

In my case (Core i5-750) 4 core - put 15. Conclusion: The uniform loading of all cores. In a game where everything is - friezes are but minor

Affinity mask settings

=1 - core 0
=2 - core 1
=3 - core 0+1
=4 - core 2
=5 - core 0+2
=6 - core 1+2
=7 - core 0+1+2
=8 - core 3
=9 - core 0 + 3
=10 - core 1 + 3
=11 - core 0 + 2 + 3
=12 - core 2 + 3
=13 - core 0 + 2 + 3
=14 - core 1 + 2 + 3
=15 - core 0 + 1 + 2 + 3

Yeah no worries mate. A constructive comment. Here goes.
I purchased a game that has a disk. Like every other game I've ever purchased I put it into my computer and it loads STEAM. After two hours it looks all fancy. I press 'play game' and after a few seconds it reads 'LAUNCHER HAS STOPPED WORKING'.
So what do you want me to do, say STEAM is great. What a great system. It's awesome. Well I'm not. I'm saying this STEAM system sucks and if I was another person who doesn't read these forums for years and years I would have no idea what the hell to do. I've stayed up late to fly this thing but now I'm off to bed still not having a clue what to do. I'm sure some computer expert will fix it but why the hell should STEAM expect people to have to do this. Don't tell me about constructive comments and go somewhere to fix it. The thing should work straight away like every product that is sold for people's hard earned money. If I bought any product I would expect it to at least work or fully explain how to get it to work. Why should I have to know where to go to get it fixed. I didn't want a broken game.

S!

McLean, did you restart the computer after the game had installed and patched itself? Some say this helped with the issue.

[Wolf_Rider]

re-inserting the disc after steam install helps...

[Deadstick]

I have a feeling that flying with Swallow-girl will be much more satisfying than flying with Spit-girl

Haha, good work!

Imagine what you could do with Multi-crew bombers? It would be like the Playboy mansion at 20k ft.

Yeah mate. restarted a couple of times and it still wont' work. Thank you for trying to help though.

Thanks Athos! I do have it set for 15, Q9650 here.

And is there any cure for those artifacts? I've got some screenshots, but also saw other people complain about it. Is it only on Radeons or nVidia too?

[Deadstick]

Actually Mclean, I know you probably hate me by now, but I just thought of something, are you using AVG antivirus?

There was an issue that came up with it thinking one of the files in CLoD was a virus. If so, there is a fix on these forums somewhere.
