About 15% fps increase for my slow videocard. Stutters are gone completely even without ramdrive.

Those who have problems, please check a link on PC optimization in my sig.

Patch installed smoothly; game runs OK. Fps seemed to increase from 19 average on sea to 22 average (mission "Bomber intercept", 6 bombers and 3 hurricanes). Still a lot of freezes down to 1 fps on my low-end machine, when approaching other planes or buildings. Freezes and low fps on land.
ClOD is not playable on my machine, atm. But the few that I can see is beatiful ... tried the G50, it is gorgeous ... easy handling, maneuverable, stable fire platform ... beautiful cockpit ... I am considering an HW upgrade just to play this sim. Tried to disable aero desktop thing, no effect whatsoever apart from a warning of incompatibility when launching ClOD.

Settings:
1280*800
AA 2x
shadows off
grass off
roads off
models high
buildings very low
terrain low
forest very low
effects high
damages high
terrain shadows low

BUG-1: the sound of the Fiat G.50 guns continue for a couple of seconds after releasing the trigger.
BUG-2: the AI tend to crash into the sea/land by their own, when dogfighting at low alt. All of my AI G.50 mates died this way ... and a couple of enemy planes as well.
BUG-3: under negative g the Merlin never shuts down, it just sputters and turns low revs. No way to turn it off by neg G.

General improvement and smoother performance, but still get freezes especially over london. Tryed the london Bomber intercept mission over London and was very laggy , ventrall gunners firing fowards on the HE 111, will have to stick to dog fights over the coast and Channell for now.

Not so fine anymore

Kankkis
Tested today, stuttering wan not bad as yesterday video, there is stuttering but not bad as video.

Is it possible try the game without buildings, those is biggest hog to me.

The buildings still cause stuttering


Saving loadouts don't work either.

Nor does AA.

I got about 2x FPS increase and less stuttering with the latest update.. Perfectly playable now, smooth even fighting 20 vs. 20 nap of the earth over a village and airfield with objects and AAA.

Phenom II 1055t 6-core
4 gb 1666mhz ddr3
palit gtx 460 sonic 2gb

Thanks Ilya & the team!

edit: settings are 1680 x 1050, no AA, everything high except buildings low trees medium and no roads.

you hit the nail right on the head with this gtx460 2gb Erkki

there is definitely a random driver related performance problem on some newer cards
