Heavy Stutters near enemy planes on ATAG

[JG52Uther]

I can escort a large AI bomber formation with good FPS, even with other human flown 109's, but if a couple of human enemy fighters turn up my FPS can drop significantly.

What do you mean by can? It happens from time to time?

@emil: Today it happened close over whater, but 1 hour later i was beyond 100m altitude with 3 other planes and didn´t have a problem....

I flew on the server twice this week, and it happened on the two occasions enemy aircraft tried to attack the bombers.
This was at around 4000 meters.
FPS going down from a pretty solid locked 30 fps (with evga precision tool), to around 14-15.

Well I can confirm that there is nothing in the mission coding that will cause fps slow Down as you approach a plane. There is no vicinity coding that would cause fps drop. This will be something to do with COD coding. I have replicated same issues as you all state on a dedicated server test both over LAN, Internet and direct connect and single player on same mission. Different altitudes etc. my pc has no issues with grass and partical effects even in their broken state.

It feels like the game is stuttering due to a graphical glitch I am sure 1c will overcome.

OH! And for gods sake. It's been years these graphics issues play up on peoples PCs. Put your damn pc specs up if you are going to state an issue. How the hell can people offer you a solution if we don't even know what system you are running! WAKE UP!

Today I flew in the middle of a 9-Bomber-Formation (AI) and had normal FPS, whereas I chased a bf-110 (player) and I had like 5 fps and less...

did the FPS drop happen after you had been playing for a while?

Yes, after escorting bombers from France to England. Once the enemy fighters left, so did the fps issue.

I'm going to put up a poll around here sometime about this, but in the meantime:

For those of you who get this drastic slowdown in multiplayer near enemy aircraft, what happens if you do something similar in singleplayer?


For me the issue only occurs in MP!!

I have exactly the same problem as described in Multiplayer.

Single player is fine for me...even with numerous enemy planes I get a smooth 50 - 60 fps.

..roger that..

I think I ran that application before at some time, but will run it again.

Thought I had skins off..but just checked, beta has obviously turned them back on again ( thanks for the prompt to check, cheers!)

will try the shadows too

thanks for suggestions
