Heavy Stutters near enemy planes on ATAG

[phoenix1963]

I suggest all of you who have this problem vote here http://www.il2bugtracker.com/issues/253 .

May I respectfully suggest that if you DON'T have this problem, the sensible thing to do is NOT TO VOTE - unlike some twerp I could mention (I had to restrain myself from asking my squad members to vote against his issues; a. I'm not that mean; b. he probably did it out of some degree of ignorance). The last thing we want is an issue that seems to be affecting a significant number of people (but a minority) to drop off this list of priorities.

Thanks,

Last night we flew a mission with 6 human piloted JU-88s on the ATAG server and when we were all lined up on the runway at Tramecourt I was only getting 4 fps. One pilot had a problem with his plane on takeoff and got separated from the pack, at this point my fps went up to and average of about 18 fps. As we flew over to England I held a frame rate that varied between 16-24 fps when over the water and it was just smooth enough to be manageable. As we approached target we all began our attack runs and as bombs were dropped on the radar station the crashes began; 4 players CTD at the exact same time and I, who was in the lead, was the only JU88 left flying. At this point when I had become the only player still flying my framerate went up to a steady 60 fps.

Aside from the CTD's it was a beautiful sight to see 5 88's flying in fomation with human pilots at the controls.

Voted...I had thought that I had skins disabled in game. I will have to see with it definitely off now, if I still have a problem on this server.

Thanks to Insuber's multiple suggestions, one of them seems to have worked.
I was too impatient to change one thing at a time, but either the skin downloads, or deleting my conf.ini seems to have fixed the problem.

Thanks. I'll leave this bug report up in case these changes don't fix it for others- at least for the moment.

P.S. I've just run a couple of sorties on ATAG, problem gone. I can also confirm that TSNotifier is not a cause.
