New patch: is the Processaffinity mask the reason for mixed results??

[Troll2k]

I thought they removed the processor affinity mask option in the conf.ini a couple of patches ago.

I think they did because I cannot find it anywhere in the config file. Can anyone confirm this?

Well i have them in my conf.in files, both of them!

I heaven't manage find it in my config, so seems a bit different from user to user. WOnder how come???

What was really confusing to me was that the general oppinion pre-alpha seemed top be that the hurricane and the 1A spit were a bit to slow than it was supposed to, and the 2A needed a bit of lower speed.

No idea how come it ended up with all red planes across got such a juicy speed reduction.

You don't want the line in your config file, that line means you are using an old version of the config.ini file.

then where do I get a new config?!? :/

disable steam cloud and reinstall.... then everything is set to default...

I've tried it all ways with my system. After applying the patch I had the ProcessAffintyMask line applied in the rts section. After reading this thread I commented it out (no difference) then I removed the line all together (again no difference). So do we need it or not???

I have not found any improvements with my system at all with the patch as a lot of others have (some have even found things worse). Looks like the team still has a lot of work to do. It will be interesting to see what their annalysis of the different results are, as all of us were hoping for the improvements that they were talking about. The improvements certainly haven't happened for a big percentage of us.

I think Luthiers FAQ needs to be updated... Number 11 in particular.
