possible temporary fix for a Dx9 GCard.

[lighthaze]

Just registered in order to partially confirm this (needed about five tries with the captcha).

Framerate definitely has increased on my x4 3ghz; 4gb ram; 460gtx machine. Quick start over british coast is pretty smooth now. Nontheless I get some nasty graphical errors. Loading times have also increased.

indeed another fellow pilot on another forum has stated the same graphical issues, iam on a dx9 card though and i know its not in the list of supported cards,

i guess at most all this just indicates a lack of optimisation im sure, and maybe a lack of ehh lets see, quality assurance principles within the scope of the development and maybe a possible lack of beta testing.

Things get pretty strange from now on. How does your card manage to still show effects while mine doesn't, although yours isn't officially supported?. Hopefully this fact will help solving the issue somehow.

€: Apparently the game also gets pretty unstable for me; nonetheless: if it runs it definitely is smoother. Trying to make a vid now.

what is beggin to be asked as far as im concerned is the original comments about having to incorporate "THE" filter into the software, the filter has not been removed, so who & how are 1C developing this title now may i ask ?

is it our good selves thankfully not suffering from epilepsy. or are they developing this around the filter still. because i cant personally see a good outcome. on one hand theres this demand and on the other there is the counter intuitive aspect in the form of the filter. WOW thats a technical nightmare of infinate proportions. but not so if we lay waste to everything good that has come from graphical technology updates over the last 5 years. i dont consider my fix a Fix. im just trying to fly smoothly. Incidentally wouldnt it be simply mad to ditch dx9 ???

You need to use the conf.ini in your "my Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover" folder.
