Crossfire is working kinda with my XFX6990. GPU cores 1 and 2 maxing out at 65%.

I was actually getting better FPS when crossfire/ Sli was broken.
When GPU1 was the only core running I was getting 45- 60+ FPS.
Now I get 30s- high 40s sometimes 50s. Slows down when ground fighting
even with Trees, grass building set to low.

Keep up the good work devs she will be ironed out when it is all said and done

Everything seems to be working ok for me
AMD Phenom 965 stock
AMD 5870 Stock cat 11.4
Full screen gave me better FPS but cant play tracks if on full screen

No Anti-aliasing - shadows still shimmering/flickering like crazy - no real FPS improvement.


not really good, honestly.

Buggest release ever. Thank's God this month I'll get a Nvidia card...

Read my post again, please. Thoroughly and carefully.

also, @raggz: I'm with you. That's one of my personal game-breaking issues as well and my belief that radio commands are not even implemented yet gains more and more 'steam'...

Thanks 1C

No appreciable change in FPS (true full screen), which (this end) was pretty good to begin with) whilst buildings pop-ups seems smoother its still stuttery (though not as much) whilst loading them. I tested in QMB. Still present is the odd terrain pop
The second run through the same QMB mission is smoother again.

QMB doesn't reflect plane customisations (weathering/ skin/ tail #/ loadout/ etc) when playing.

exiting the sim has a drop back to last run QMB mission at the time of exiting that, before desktop proper appears.


does nVidia profile maker work yet?

From these benchmarks I just did - I'd suggest checking the status of the 'ProcessAffinity Mask=' setting in your conf.ini file located in the /1C SoftClub path.

If your having stutter/pausing issues with multi-core CPU - then disable it by putting a ';' symbol in front of the ProcessAffinityMask parameter and save the file.

See if that helps, if you so inclined. These are the best FPS I've gotten ever.

Best in terms of Max FPS - Min FPS and absence of pausing or severe stuttering. I had to ProcessAffinityMask must be disabled on my system to really see the improvement.

Anyway, I thought I'd post this info as it made a lot of difference and thought it might be of help to someone - I'll restest to affirm.

S!

In what way is it a step backward, have you deleted the cache as this sometimes helps after a new patch?

Full screen is also causing the gui buttons to not work.. exit, change side etc etc.

I think Redroach made those comments as Luthier has said if performance for ATI cards isnt as good in full screen then for now please use psuedo full screen.
