Il-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover: Patch 1.00.14072 -ARIL 15

[jibo]

interesting reports from SimHQ

I went from "not struggling" to "rather struggling" with this patch. Go figure. I had gotten the game to play quite fluidly (London was even playable) using the nossao mod. Now with this latest patch I get a definite rubberbanding effect. Not really stutters per say but the frames are sped up and than slowed down. I revert/re install the previous "parts" folder and the game is fluid again. Maybe I should not fix what isn't really broke but I would like to run the latest version so I can do multiplayer.


Specs
Intel i7 950 OC'ed to 4 Mhz
4 Gig Ram
ATI 6950 2 Gig
Win 7 32bit on SSD
Game installed on different SSD

The patch makes things worse for me.

Missing buildings
Unable to change buildings amount in video options. I can change it in the optins but it does nothing in game.
Much lower FSP over towns.

Very poor patch on my system.

There is something problems with building density, sometimes when i chance graphic options my building is all gone, then i go back and put Unlimited then buildings is back, then i go back and put high and they are all there again, but something problem there really is. i see it works when it works and i don't make chances anymore.

The same applies to the grass. It seems that fiddling with the advanced graphics options within the game will remove the animated grass.

No FPS change for me; if anything, a very miniscule decrease in overall performance. All settings on medium apart from Plane detail on high & buildings amount & detail on low. 2X AA (Grass & Shadows checked, Roads & Epilepsy Filter unchecked).
Before patch: Cross Country Quick mission Taxi, Takeoff & Quick Circuit gave me between 35-49 FPS (Average 31)
Latest Beta Patch with the same quick mission: Between 26-38 FPS (Av. 23).

My system.
Intel Core Quad Q8400 @ 2.66GHz 2.67GHz, 4GB DDR3 RAM, ZOTAC Nvidia GTX 580 amp! edition, Vista 64 with SP2, 32" LCD Display 1360 x 768.

the config.ini doesn't seem to save until the sim is exited from... so change your video settings, exit the sim and restart it - see that makes a difference to what you report
