Lovely work on the cockpit gauges and canopy reflections... beautiful work

Even duct tape can't fix stupid... but it can muffle the sound.

Next run same settings average 32fps, maximum 76fps and lowest 8fps. What gives?

Time to wait 6 months or more and then come back so devs have time to fix the issues.
Regarding stripes (and one could hazzord a guess, the rest to) apparently its because ATI seems to care.....nada about making the driver work with 69xx- series.

Go to thire forum and make them

I've already reported it to ATI and so have several other users. Its not hard to tell who's to blame, considering the amount of graphical artefacts that exist in Cliffs of Dover for all brands and series of cards its pretty obvious who is bloody well at fault here. The other major sims play nice with the ATI cards so Cliffs of Dover is doing itself no favours at all.

The longer the blue stripes bug goes unfixed the longer I wouldn't even remotely consider spending any more money on a future IL-2 title.

Sadly, I think your last paragraph goes for me also. The last two or three patches seem to have done very little to improve Clod. I'd go as far as to say there are more problems now than a couple of patches ago for me personally. I really would like to see this game/sim in all its glory but the frustrations outweigh the pleasure at this time. I'll look forward to seeing how Clod has progressed (hopefully ) a few months down the line.

Difference is: AMD cares about the other "cool" games, they haven't released a patch that utters a word about CoD.

Neither have NVida but Nvidia users dont have constant graphics errors.

Am I the only one here with performance degradation since the latest beta patch??? I play with almost all settings maxed out. Before the latest patch this was playable in almost all situations (except close above industrial area's). Now it's often a slide show above land and sometimes even above sea with a few planes in dogfight.

I like to know if others have experienced the same, because else, I will do a reinstall of the sim.

Cleared the cache?

I didn't notice an improvement whatsoever. Same same but seems graphics are nicer though but that might be in my head only.

Stability improvment = Performance increase. my current frame rates are currently within a +/- 1 to 3 fps margin of the average FPS indication everywhere now, over sea, over south kent. London still takes a hit. it always will untill the majority our systems exceed the general specs that the game demands.
