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

I am very pleased with this patch, on full screen mode I am getting about 30 fps flying low over london with no stuttering and much more fluid rendering. And little screen tearing. AA (2x) seems to be working for me. I run the game at high for most setting except building detail which i set to medium. My resolution is 2560x1600 on 30 inch display. On smaller multiplayer map i was getting about 40-60 fps. I'm running SLI and havent disabled this. I can imagine the fps should become really good once the SLI becomes functional with the next nvidia patch.

A funny bug i had was while playing multiplayer, sound suddenly crackled and disappeared.

Pleased to annouce i got my first 2 kills on multiplayer as well while flying my 109 It was on aero quake server hehe.

Thanks Luthier and gang for the great work in producing this patch. I'm pretty much satisfied with the performance rite now. So like the rest have said, its the other aspects of gameplay that should receive some attention from now on.

Check the VSYNC option under video options

ive been generaly quite happy with it lately and before this latest patch, my experiences now are that the annoying stuttering is back. and i feel its attributed to something scenery related and the full screen thing. turning back on the Aero did help somewhat i "THINK". and choosing native rez 1920 (16:9) was better than 1680 (16:10). dogfighting with the same amount of aircraft over france was much much smoother. Also im having a Launcher crashes ,freezing everything sometimes my mouse too. And i mean no disrespect but over land its like it was on DAY 1but a bit better. i didnt dare try over london. not to enjoyable all round. bit of a step backwards imo. but on the positive the new lighting effects are actually spot on. love its looks !

unrelated but i get these framerate increases when i turn these off. but it does not add to the smoothness you might think 17 fps might give. so its unrelated imo.

mirrors cost me 7 fps.
SSAO costs me 10 fps.

Better not.. This last patch completely cut my FPS in half and introduced stutters and graphics glitches that I haven't had since day one. Had 60 FPS + constant with no problems whatsoever since release before this nightmare. FPS is now 30 to 40 with stutters, major graphics glitches.

Still two quite annoying issues :

- Josystick control is a bit laggy and late
- Head view is too a bit laggy and too slow

Anything else running quite well
