Old patch v1.05.15950 is now live! What to expect next.

[yakaddict]

I've been running the patch for about an hour now and the performance is actually improved on my system (i7 920 OC @ 3.72ghz, 12gb ram, gtx570 OC). I can actually fly at low level properly now, there are still stutters but they dont compare to how bad it was before, the water looks fantastic compared to before, and the sound is incredible. Overall I think this is a very evolutionary patch, I'm pretty happy with it. If we keep seeing development like this by mid 2012 we should have a truly spectacular game on our hands.

Yes we have a CSP for the SPit, brilliant..but i think we need the orig lighting effects back, the better FPS back and the ORIGINAL cockpits back too while were there..

Agree.

I really hope I can somehow restore the visuals from an older version. I tested and I can revert to the first beta, just in case, but I'd like the looks of the older official versions.

i disabled hyperthreading from BIOS, it reduced a LOT of stuttering from my game.

Same problem with this patch than allways from launch. i fly first Crosscountry and get constant 60fps and game is really smooth, then i goto other missions and i got reduced performance, i goto back to crosscountry and i get 30-40fps.

only way i can get my smooth 60fps is relaunching the game.

Thanks to the team. And finally an official statement on the radio comms and AI wingmen behavior. Can't wait to get the next patch so i can play singel player as it should be played

Our main priorities now are:

1. Physics and FM. This means plane behavior in the air, brand new landing gear model on the ground, collision modeling including tree collision (if performance allows), and improved vehicle physics.
2. AI. Currently working on everyone’s favorite controls flutter and AI wingman behavior. Also working on improving radio comms, getting your crew to be more verbose on the intercom, and lots of other changes. Coupled with #1, this should give us quite a dramatic change in how air combat looks and feels.
3. Performance. We are in final stages of testing a thorough overhaul of the game’s graphic engine. It won’t look any different but it will be much more streamlined. It’s too early to say what the FPS increase will be in the final version, but it shouldn’t be less than 50%.
4. Sound. The sound in the v15950 is considered a beta. We will continue to improve existing sound, and to add new ones to the aircraft and to the world around them.
5. SDK. As promised earlier, still planning to release a map-making SDK in the near future. More details will be released when we are ready for them.

In short;

Developing a sim.........

Shouldn't be less than 50%??? MY FRIGGIN LORD!! That means close to 60 for me.

What the hell...? Yesterday I played CoD. No problem. Today I wanted to play/download patch, clicked on launcher.exe, cursor spinned for a while and then... NOTHING. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I had cleared cache folder only, nothing else (and yes I have a purchased official version from the Steam).

Desprit.

Any idea?

Uninstall the game, Delete the Il2 folder manually in your steamapps folder. Then clean up the settings folder (backup your controls settings, paint-schemes, missions and so on before deleting) "1c Softclub" in "my documents". Then reinstall. I found out i had a lot of leftovers from earlier betas and so on. This might be your case?

Thx Raggz. I thought this would be the last thing to be considered.

But I am coming to conclusion this is the only one

I read new aircraft then I got excited... then realised it was the later versions of the bf109 and felt sad
