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

[PeterPanPan]

Massively improved framerates and 99% stutter free. Great job devs.

However, when using the stock Quick Missions, and using CTRL F2 or SHFT F2 to cycle through other a/c views, I keep getting CTD. CTD only ever occurs when doing this.

The fuel dump explosions are mightily impressive. Yes, you get a a significant fps hit (45 down to about 20) but this doesn't seem to matter.

Trees seem to shimmer a little.

Building pop-ups are virtually non-existent too. With original textures, all buildings disappeared though.

Flight over London is now a real joy.

Well done devs.

For the time being you can force it with D3Doverrider, which is a tool in rivatuner. Hope it will be implemented later.

I downloaded win zip and 7 zip and neither could unzip this. I did exactly as the directions said, download patch (I saved it to a download file), unzipped and selected unzip location exactly where they said and this is what i get:

! C:\Users\Derek\Downloads\Games\Cliffs of Dover\IL2COD_14072.rar: CRC failed in parts\core\core.dll. The file is corrupt
! C:\Users\Derek\Downloads\Games\Cliffs of Dover\IL2COD_14072.rar: Unexpected end of archive

I've downloaded the patch twice now and with no change.

First of all, sorry, I am an idiot (and have never installed them beta patch thingies before )
Do I extract the
a) actual file (as in IL2COD_14072etc.rar)
b) parts
c) core and bob as folders

into the directory?

Hello SQB, I just extracted the whole contents to steam/steamapps/common/cod and it worked fine, just say yes when windows asks you to overwrite, hope this helps.

Better performance on Q9540 @3ghz, GTX570 and 8Gb DDR2 over land and sea.

Only one issue that I think is patch related- shadows cast by trees are now flickering.

I would ask the devs to consider (at some stage) incorporating a 'real guages' setting in difficulty options so users can select the old pnumatic guages for those planes that were equiped with them. Also if engines were cutting out or spluttering at a specific -g could we have the option to fly with those characteristics ?

I appreciate that you can't please all the people all of the time and it is case of finding a happy balance but there are a lot of people who appreciate authenticity and as it was represented in the game previously it would be a great shame to see it lost.

Good patch- thanks.

cheers... but...
Turns out that was accidentally the RU version, so I went from the beginning with my backup and downloaded the regular version. But then I get "unexpect end of archive" ninja'd in by the guy who posted before me.

I'm gonna try the rapidshare/megaupload locations but this is weird and annoying

Somewhat better than the performance mod. Better FPS and smoother. Actually been able to play a while for the first time!

I can confirm severe stutter when starting Le Havre single mission. Some industrial building eats lots of fps.
