Can you guys please confirm that you get flickering water textures with working SLI? I suffer from this phenomenon. Is it just me or do you guys have that too?
For mee the flickering water makes the game pretty much unplayable.

Thanks!

flickering water textures ?

no flickering water textures here.

What SLI configuration do you have, how much VRAM and what kind of settings?

I have 3x GTX 480 SLI and i tried to use the settings shown above ->

"Working SLI-Bits to edit with NVIDIA Inspector 1.9.5.5

Click at Profile Settings (besides the "Driver Version"),
create Custom Profile and click "add application to current profile" to add launcher.exe.
edit:
SLI compatibility bits (DX10): 0x000000F5

NVIDIA predefined SLI mode on DirectX 10: SLI_PREREFINED_MODE_DX10_FORCE_AFR

click on "Apply changes" "

I am using the latest nvidia driver 275.50.

sadly nothing seens to work.

Sorry, no idea with tripple SLI, one of my fellow pilots has quad-SLI (2x590) and has the same problem, it does not work...

I see you use an earlier driver version. Ill try that one out today or ill even try to unmount one of the 3 Cards temporary and see if 2 cards only do work.

Thanks for your feedback.

I was thinking suggesting it to you yesterday but I did not dare

Yes, I believe this would be a good solution to be sure about it.

AFTER you have tried the twin cards and the results are satisfactory, you can also put the three cards in and with the NVInspector change the profile a little bit more: I do not remember by heart but there is a parameter in the profile which defines how many GPUs should be used for rendering the DX10 game. Normaly it is default (auto) but you can change it to one, two, three or four

Good luck!

Some comments post-patch beta:

I did not notice any change to the fps rates before - after beta patch.

The game seems to have less stutters when flying over areas with a lot of buildings.
Flying above London is much better now. There is still some stutter flying at medium alt during the first pass (while the GPU is loading the building details). On the second fly over there is no stutter at all.
Flying low above London gives no stutters at all (smaller view - less buildings to load )

Could not notice the same improvement flying the Bf109 over the French harbour though, it still gives a lot of stutters.

The amount of VRAM usage ist still high, my VRAM goes quickly to 1 - 1.2 Gb used (my cards have 1.3Gb VRAM) so I will stick to my recommendation that only 3Gb VRAM cards are the ones to go for.
