No, it's "normal"... When we got the "Steam Ghost Update", I have BIG gains in performance. And now after "something" the sun glare turns into this beauty:



I don't know if when we edit some configuration files some of the settings go back to "default", if we receive small updates through Steam... What I can say for sure is that here I have BIG performance gains after the "Steam Ghost Update" and now, after edited conf.ini "32/16 and back 24/8" my sun glare is nice!

Maybe CloD likes to me "rubbed"...

"Steam Ghost Update" what the heck is that?

Guys sorry but no other game forces you that try to change code left right and centre every other session try to to get it to run or more accurately not crash.

Face it, the game is still more broke than ever, nothing has changed in 6 months, so its slightly more playable than on release, but thats because we have better sounds coming slowly from someone who wasnt even part of their team.

I think its a real poor show. Sorry for being negative

I thought this was just a download of the ubi splash video for those that had deleted it?

Changed my settings in .../documents without any difference in qual or perf.

But glad that LoBiSoMeM saw yet another raise in quality and performance.

Default oh my god...

Went back to the original settings of 24 & 8... and cleaned the cache.

The FPS improvement in the average value of the "Death Track" still there.

Why everything has to be this way with this game/simulator...

No, I just had the sun glare working like it suposed to be after editing conf.ini, any number in the two settings listed in this thread.

My setting in conf.ini, as I said, was "strange", with lots of spaces after "=" and stuff.

Just that. But for me, it's a HUGE improvement. because before change conf.ini if the sun apears even in the corner of the screen all monitor became white... This bug goes away.

With Steam update I have massive decrease in stuttering. I don't know what happens, if some "default" setting are restored, some corruption is solved, just had much better performance.

But one thing I noticed here is that we leave with a sim with lots of bugs and optimization problems, with constant patches, lots of configuration options, etc, and somne folks like to make fun with people who report gains/losts regards performance after a LOT of changes.

Strange...

nope. the splash has something like 3 or 4 mb. also people wit hsplash did recieve the "patch" of 22, and people who had deleted stuff got 30 mb.

Also, some people reported gains in performance.

you're really not used to flight sim tweaking are you? it's not tweaking code, it's changing a configuration settings file that is more complex than any gui could hope to make navigable.

the sounds make no difference to how playable a game is, but most certainly a lot of things have changed - those included. i can only speak for myself of course, but since this beta patch came out, and with this little tweak, i've been playing on and offline with a smoother game. i've got vastly improved performance since release. it's not near finished, perfect nor has it got the stability and playability of 1946 yet, but it's going in the right direction.
