go to your main steam cod directory,..then open the folder parts,therein should be a folder named core,open it and then open the GUI folder. then you should see the logo file, just delete it!!!
i really can recommend everybody to delete this f..... file. london was unplayable for me.without changing the settings i have now average 40 fps over london sightseeing mission.and almost no stutters!!!its pretty smooth now.its a different game without this file.

the only problem i have now, is that i cannot longer recenter my trackir.but this has nothing to do with the ubi logo file.
i deleted the game and steam, to get a complete fresh installation of cod, hoping that i could gain performance.before that, i disabled steam cloud.after all new installations and a vanilla version of cod, track ir does not react anymore when i launch the game.
i just recognized, that i dont even have to start the game to have this effect.its enough when i open steam, then my trackir no longer responses.as soon as i click on my desktop though(with steam opened) it reacts again.pretty strange and i dont know what to do.any suggestions???

Ali it has nothing to do with plane controls, it's related with spawning of AI planes.

Cheers.

Have you ever flown it with CEM online? It flies silky smooth online but offline it doesn't matter if my temps are perfect or where my ATA is at. I just tried offline radiators fully open, not even exceeding 1.0 ATA at take off, still shaking. Try it online yourself and notice the difference. Believe me I have read the manual, I have read the forums, I'm a seasoned IL-2 pilot so I have not missed anything.

Also, FPS are ok after the patch but rubber banding is HORRIBLE, especially down low over land. It's like the plane is doing never ending long jumps, LOL! I'll just put this back into the mothball where it belongs for now.

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.

Strange, because it works fine on other Ati cards like my two year old 4890 or the 5xxx series. I used to get anywhere between 30-60FPS over any kind of terrain with the previous patch and this one probably made it better since it runs fine without me having to disable the Ubi logo splash screen (i'll try it out and see if i gain anything more).

This blue stripes business is most probably an issue between the drivers and the 6xxx series architecture, otherwise we would all get the blue stripes. However, it's only the 6xxx series that gets it, every other Ati card that meets the system requirements doesn't have this problem.

Correction, only 69xx series gets the horizon stripes.

The difference here is the smiley. If the problem was wider spread, it would probably be fixed already...

What is VERY IMPORTANT is to delete the contents of the cache folder (documents\1c softclub\cache) before running the new patch - after doing that, the graphic glitches dispappeared, the frame rate INCREASED A LOT and the stuttering REDUCED A LOT.

However I'm still getting BAD STUTTERING WHEN LOOKING STRAIGHT AHEAD IN 'COCKPIT VIEW'!
Looking out to the wings, the stuttering disappears - it's therefore looks like its being affected by the pixels etc relating to the instrument panel and/or rear view mirror! Obviously stuttering in this view is the most bothersome because one can't aim etc.

When looking sideways (to the wings), I get a consistent and smooth 30+fps, whereas when looking straight ahead I get 30+fps dropping to 7fps after every 2 or so seconds (creating the stutter) - hope that helps!?

Disabling the rearview mirror has sorted my stuttering out. Still some stuttering over built-up areas, so will tune that setting (buildings) done to "medium" (currently on "high").
Much happier now!!!
Other than that, it's a big improvement - thanks, and keep up the good work.

I respectfully suggest that resources get prioritised to the STUTTERING ISSUE - with bad stuttering, the game essentially remains unplayable for me and others who have systems a year or two old.

Disabling the rearview mirror has sorted out my stuttering problem.

I founded that mirror problem too, it put my game stutter really badly now after betapatch, no stutter before patch with mirror like this, now it unplayable with mirror, strange but true.

mungee we have both crossfire cards, maybe that is now problematic with mirror?

The rear-view mirror fps loss is well documented and not solely related to crossfire cards. That said, when I try to run crossfire it stutters like all hell - I actually get less fps and literally unplayable stutters running xfire, with a single card I get an almost steady 30fps and minimal stutter.

Makes me wonder. I know in the previous retail patch, crossfire was apparently 'fixed', but this certainly isn't my experience. Anyone actually have crossfire working and playing well?
