Russian version review

[adonys]

As far as I saw, the stutters might be caused by sounds/effects.

Disable all sounds (from config file), and give it another go. Then try again without/lowest effects.

Now, if this proves right (as it seemed to me when I've tried it yesterday, but I only have a crappy laptop in here in London, my computer monster sits at home in Bucharest), then this, corelated with what Oleg said about multicore/multithreading (that only the sounds are actually made on different threads), then it means we are in front of poor multi-threading programming (stutters caused by the main process waiting signal clearance from threads finishing their job).

i tried turning the graphics completely down to minimum and it was the same thing very smooth with the pause every 5 sec or so.

lol I have no idea hot to disable one card if it is simple walk me through it and I will test it out.

U have to disable the card in CCC.

Note that i assume this because thats what one do when running NVidia. There is a page in the control panel where u choose to run 1 or 2 card and choose also if CPU, GPU1 or GPU2 is suppose to run PhysX.


No reason why its any different in CCC/Crossfire (except for the PhysX part off course)

Ok time to get really honest I have been self teaching my way around a computer for about 15 years but laziness combined with a lack of drive has contained my over all knowledge of how to build, repair, and just over all manipulate my own computers to a bare minimum. (I makem game runem someum timeum)

LOL I used to be so proud of myself when I would just copy and paste a boot disk one of my smart friends had made to make a game run for me (386 and 486dx2) and got another game to run on the same boot disk.

with that said i have been to my CCC panel and i can see both cards i think one seems to be running and the other sitting idle. i dont know if this is how they normally are when no programs are running or if the guy that built my computer for me just knew that i would never know if they were both actually working or not LOL

I just assumed that when two cards were in there and connected via the crossfire plug that they were both working.

I did not see any option that said to disable either card nor did i see one that gave me the option as to what i wanted each card to handle.

I apologize for my electrical ignorance ahead of time. I will gladly test any configuration that you guys are willing to walk me through

I think a may have confused it a bit. Disabling crossfire, i think, is done in CCC and the game/global settings. U know, where u set AA and AF and stuff like that outside the game. If its anything like NVidia controle panel u can hover the cursor over each setting and a text should pop up explaining what each setting does.

Running NVidia now so i cant check myselfe.

Disable one card and try it again

Just tried to play for a bit and my view on il2 COD is

Negatives
1 Is/was not ready to be released.
2 Buggy as hell
3 Stuttering all over the place
4 Colours way to bright on landscape

Positives
1 Nice menus
2 Models look awsome
3 Trees and towns are beautifull
4 Water looks really good

I tried playing on different graphics settings and my conclusion is that for an engine that has been made over the last few years it should perform way better then this. A highend system shouldnt be struggling to pump out good fps nowadays so either the structure in wich the code is written is either badly making advantage from all the hardware features or there is something seriously wrong thats holding the engine back (Epilepsy filter?)

My system : Core I7 920 @ 3.8Ghz / 6Gb ddr3 / GTX 480 / Win7 64
