Default Better

Still a little jumpy at startup and while flying over land but way better than it was. Keep going at it guys

I got a very good fps gain after the patch, became playable over land, even London is fairly good.
London Attack performance: Avg:21 Max:46 Min:0 only 2 mins in though
Still got some long pauses (15 sec) at start of every mission.
I need to keep the building amount down I think its causing the stutter and also getting sometimes bad gunnery stutter.
Sometimes the bullets don't render (making it hard for deflection shots).
Still no servers?

Current settings working well:
1920x1080 60hz
High: Model, Damage Decal, Visaul FX
Medium:Building Detail, Land Detail, forest
Low: building amount, land shading
shadows on
grass, roads: off

AMD Phenom II X6 1055t 3.2ghz
4gb ram
Sapphire VaporX HD5870

The FPS is slightly higher than before. Still unplayable at 1920x1080 at whatever setting (low fps max 40 over water, 20 london, heavy stutters). At 1600x900 significantly better. Playabe at medium settings...low over a small town around 30-35 fps, london cca 20-27, water 50-60.
But, again whatever settings the stutter especially low over land is significant but less pronounced. Low/high settings dont do much difference, with high it is slightly worse.

THE BIGGEST ISSUE...nvidia control pannel cant see the sim, so I cant try to set anything (especially AA and AF and vertical synchronisation)

THE GPU is rarely at full power (only in london at 1920x1080 and high settings. usually around 53%max)

THE CPU is also somewhere 20 - 30% max (even the first core doesnt come more than 50). Seems the game isnt utilising even one core.

Affinitymask to 14 helped a little with fps/stutter, but the cpu isnt going higher

I have aero switched off...just in case, because i didnt see much difference

I use the first 2 series nvidia drivers (257.xx?). Did you people see better results with newer drivers? (did it help with nvidia control pannel?)

Also the logitech G940 manager cant seem to recognize the game. The centering force sometimes works and sometimes not.

I use Freetrack and all FPS was recorded by fraps.
Tested with tiger moth free flight over england.

My rig:
i5-450 oc 4GHz
4GB RAM 1600 7-7-7-24
GTX480 stock (1,5GB)
SSD AHCI mode for WIN 7 64b Enterprise
Another SSD IDE mode for sims (IDE mode made a big difference in stutters not only in il2 but also A-10)
Pagefile on WD caviar green i dont remember 4 or 6 GB

Use http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.ph...ml#Post3253476 method for G940, works like a charm

In my case a few things apparently got fixed.

1.- I used to have a crash to desktop EVERY time I tried to edit my plane or pilot. Right now seems to be fixed and stable (so far...)

2.- My FPS improved a little bit but no major improvement, playing over london or other cities is still virtually impossible.

3.- Stutters haven't stop and honestly I can't tell if they are less or not, but they remain around.

My PC specs:

ATI Radeon 4890.
i7 920 quad core.
3gb ram.
Windows 7 ultimate.

I got only really good performance boost with NOMIPMAP mod(if no 95% loading crash), my stutter was minimal, but building looks ugly with it, cannot use, better for stutter because stutters go away about 15 min when flying over buildings. When game start stutter is really bad, 0,5-1sec pauses whole a time when over buildings at low altitude.
