The struggle for FPS should bring the AntiEpilepcy=0 setting in the conf.ini file (after deactivating game's Steam Cloud option). The biggest FPS gain from settings can be gained by deactivating the shadows/roads/clouds/landscape details/visual effects/clickable cockpit(on/off with F10). Resolution doesn't give much of a difference, which actually means the bottleneck is not on the graphic card.

The game is not optimized at all. It's enough to watch the Pilot and Plane menu, which are only displaying a single pilot/plane, and see how poor (performance wise) is the rendering done.
Anyone got any experience setting up a joystick? My Russian is poor

Told you guys to use Oleg's english menu screenshots as referrence..

In the top left, the first button is Keys, and the one next to it is Axes. To setup a joystick, you obviously have to go to the Axis part of controls.

- in there, the first three on top are X, Y and Z (screenshot 24)
- throttle is underneath, under engine control series (SHIFT +1, SHIFT +2, etc) (screenshot 25)
- autorudder can be found by looking for the default keys as displayed on english menu screens (screenshot 19)

F10 key is used to switch between muse looking/mouse clickable cockpit (which is also draining some FPS), so use it to switch into mouse looking mode once in the game.

There is also a setting in ini named something like CockpitOnePass=0, setting it on 1 should force render the cockpit in just one pass, with a lower graphic quality but greater performance. should, considering the name, I can't test it on my laptop, it takes like 3 minutes just to start the damn game.

Ah - thank you!

Also, how did you disable Steam Cloud saving. I turned if off in the Properties part of the Steam game library but my local conf/userConf settings don't seem to stick?

Edit: Ah, wrong place - looks like C:\Users\(user)\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover

exactly the same, but mine's are sticking..

just disable cloud, log out from steam, then log in again and restart game.

also, i hope you are talking about the conf.ini from user/name/documents/1C/il2, not the one from steam game's install folder.. right?!! 'cause that one is just a default reference one.

PS: frog, please post a link in the first post of the other thread to here, babysitting two threads on the same subjects is too much for my little free time. thanks

Hi guys,

I didn't read all the pages before, but did anyone try to add following line to the conf.ini file?

[rts]
locale=EN

This parameter has been used in IL2 to set the game language and many settings of the CoD conf.ini look very familiar...


Also one question to the ones who bought at yuplay: when trying to buy via CC, a https-connection is established, but my browser complains that the validity of the certificate can't be checked. Did you also have seen this?

I've just joined the mad rush through the russian gateway too!

Now successfully downloading russian version into second steam account (at 5% downloaded)

Woot!

BobTuck.

p.s. just for the record, my small checking amount turned out to be $1.44

ACK! I got jammed up at the money check because I used a CC linked to a checking account and I don't get updated for a couple of days. I tried a few guesses and got locked out, oh, well I sent an e-mail to tech support, hopefully we can all get along. Hopefully the language thing won't be a problem, but I've very fortunately been studying Olegish for more than a decade, so I should be all set.
