Well then I'm sorry I tried to answer your question.

btw in your first post you posed the problem and asked "Can this be edited in the conf, or is there another fix?"

I suggested turning off the things that annoy you

In your second post you said you didn't want to, you wanted them to be available (which kind of conflicts with what you are trying to achieve).

I suggested some alternatives

In your third post you said "No luck so far with the conf..." but didn't even say what you had tried (I still don't know).

I asked, knowing that some people hadn't realised there was a conf.ini in two places,
had you tried the (effective) one in your User folder and posted my details as a prompt.

So which post didn't I read?

It doesn't really matter to me either way but when you ask a question and someone tries to help but doesn't give you the answer you want to hear it doesn't do any good getting upset about it. If some posts don't help just let them go by.

You apparently didnt even understand the issue.

I'm not here to be insulted or flamed. I asked a question, how to make il2:clod run in a true full screen mode instead of pseudo-window that is seemingly behind everything else whenever theres activity in those windows.

You adviced me to shut down those programs, as because you flew full switch you'd only have the game and voice comms to concentrate on. Real constructive!

Tweaking conf didnt work, so now its true windowed screen forced to 1680 x 1050. Hate the frames, but what can I do?

[Winters]

What's happening. Im trying setup my graphics settings and game just crashes to desktop?

That's a decent enough PC spec Rinneh. That shouldn't be your problem.

Try going into Steam and validate your game installation in case you have a bad file somewhere (Library, Right Click on IL-2....CoD, Select Properties, Local Files Tab - click on Verify Integrity of Game Cache).
Have you got the latest Nvidia drivers?
Have you tried starting out with Video options set to, say, Low just to see if it runs ok at that then try upping the settings?

[SireCampin]

This is stupidly annoying. Everytime, I launch CoD. I'm greeted with a black screen.

I'm currently using an ATI graphics card.

[ripmax]

hello

i just recently bought this game and installed the updates from steam. as soon as i start the game the cockpits always come in many colours like tiny dots or red yello and other's many of the gauges are unreadable .

i updated the drivers of my video card and still i have this problem.

my video card is nvidia GTX 550 TI

any help pls?

regards
Daniel

I'd like to know this too. I run the game from Steam, with an NVIDIA GTX 460 graphics card.

I have not had any problems before, but I recently bought a new monitor and increased the resolution to 1920x1080. Now I have the same dots and strange graphics inside the cockpit as ripmax has. Everything else looks fine.

EDIT:

I found this thread: http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=27437, and can confirm that the problem goes away if I turn off the epilepsy filter. Why is this suddenly a problem for me? Does the increased resolution cause these kinds of things with the epilepsy filter?

[ripmax]

yes turn off the epilepsy filter solved the problem but the game is really lagging with my system.

intel i5 3.2ghz

1g ram graphics card

direct x 11

whats else one needs to run this game properly???
i even overclocked the card from 900ghz to 1000 and same results

what are the recommended specs to this simulation properly?!!
the real specs!
