Il-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs Of Dover Retail Patch v 1.01.14550

[kristorf]

Oddball,
thanks for the tips.

I ended up deleting and reinstalling prior to your post and it seems OK at the moment (touching wood at the time)
Reading other peoples posts they are getting exactly the same problems so I think its something to do with systems and the hotfix.

I will stick with it though because I feel this game has massive potential, even if it was released 6 months early

i have stutters over london big time!those are not the common stutters as usual, but really long ones.some last for 5-6 seconds.the screen freezes totally.the fps are more or less the same(maybe a bit less than with beta patch) but the stutters are very apparent!!i have them over all cities now.but london is a nightmare and unplayable again.i did not have that with the beta patch!
i also get some strange green and brown squares on land and sea....and this after a complete fresh install of the game,without messing with any files.

i looked up your MB to see if you could SLI/XFIRE but you can not I think your going to want to upgrade you video card, i just don't
think the card is really powerful enough

S!

hey oddball!
i know that my system could need an upgrade!and im not complaining that i cannot play smooth with everything maxed out over london for example.
but im frustrated,because with the last beta patch,i could fly almost stutterless over london and every other city with the same settings i use now.but now although my fps are pretty much the same(a bit lower and more unstable though) i have stutters that make it unplayable.i did not have those stutters with the beta patch.
the problem occours mainly when i change my view with my trackir.if i hold my view steady,the game runs pretty steady.but if i look in a different direction,the fps drop suddenly pretty bad,and there are stutters,which are even worse than with the first version of the game.
again,i know my pc is not high end, but i could play the game smooth enough for my taste with the last beta patch,but now,unfortunately i cant anymore.

Since this latest Steam patch and hotfix, I've had the following new problems:
1. concrete coloured rectangular strips on the sea texture - never had this before but seen it on others' screenshots;
2. prolonged (5 mins or so) drop in fps during a small mission (4 planes only) after going to outside view of an enemy then returning to cockpit view, over sea, fps dropped to 6-7 fps, I normally have between 40 - 80 fps in usual circumstances.

[Earlier this week I updated my driver to nvidia's latest beta 275.27 W7 64bit, but not seen any oddities in other games so far]

3. no sound until about 10 minutes into a mission, thereafter certain sounds intermittant or missing completely - again never had missing sound in an actual mission before, only in the known issue with track replays and sounds that have never been there as far as I know (e.g. train sounds) ;

Working SLI-Bits to edit with nvidia inspector.

Create custom profile and add launcher.exe.

edit:
SLI compatibility bits (DX10): 0x000000F5
&
NVIDIA predefined SLI mode on DirectX 10: SLI_PREREFINED_MODE_DX10_FORCE_AFR

I get 99% usage on both GPUs in most of the scenes, cockpit view however seems broken and I get about 1/4FPS of external view and some flickering.

Driver used: 275.27 Beta / Win7 64

Sys used:
Intel Core i7 930 @ 4.2Ghz
Asus Rampage III Extreme
12GB Corsair Dominator GT 1600Mhz
2x Geforce GTX580 SLI @ 850Mhz
Creative X-Fi Titanium HD
Dell U2711 2560x1440

Interesting stl, please help me understand your statement above.
(if you meant 174fps I will be very happy...)
