Here's mine:



Variable from 25 to 35 fps, with about 40 fps when no terrain behind. When I'm not recording with fraps, there's a mean increase of about 5 fps. In hardest explosions, fps fall to 10 for only a second. Sound of engines is missing, but that's a general track minor issue, In flight there's sound with no problems.

My config (spanish; Alto = Hight, Medio = Medium, Bajo = Low):


Pc:

I7 920 overclocked at 3,33Ghz
6 GB RAM DDR3
Nvidia GTX275
Win 7 Ultimate 64 bits

for the black death video, the bomb explosion looks great!! but only if the smoke and dust can remain longer.

On the first track, where the aircraft get blown up on the run way...i think the way they bounce all over the place is a bit over the top, youd think wings and stuff would get blown off but not for the plains to act like bouncy balls

Where is this track? The patch updated itself in Steam but no tracks exist in the tracks menu.

I had trouble finding the track as well- i found it eventually in:
C: program files (x86)/steam/steamapps/common/il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover/ records
It seems that's where the steam updater puts it. Once you've located it you can copy-paste it where your other tracks get put.

I ran the new Black Death track and I'm not satisfied at all.
I even got minimum of 3fps and this is outrageous for my brand new system. Not to mention that it doesn't seem like a "difficult" track. OK, it had some explosions and a few planes, but it's not like we had 60 planes fighting all together over London.

This game should not "compete" on how to become as unplayable as it can be and regretfully a simple track like new Black Death shows that developers have a lot of issues to solve before this game becomes playable like IL-2.

Dolphin if you have a new system I suspect something is drastically wrong. You should be getting better frames than that.

With an overclocked i5 2500K and gtx570 I am getting an average of 61 in the Black Death track, lowest frames are 16, and thats with all settings on Very High with SSAO off.

I found my machine runs smoother with everything turned up for some reason. I have an nVidia card obviously but changing settings in Control panel to 'prefer maximum performance' and upping the maximum pre-rendered frames from 3 to 8 helped also.

I'd suggest experimenting with settings because that can't be right. It might still be buggy but high end machines can run this up full. A teammate with a similar system gets the same results as I do, so you should be getting better.

S!

Post your specs man ... how can anyone help without them?

As for me - (stuffed up my original post)

All in game settings on Medium

Min Max Avg
22 139 64.627

I'm thinking of getting the new 3GB 580GTX (no not 590) but I'll wait till SLI / Crossfire is enabled in CoD.

I'm starting to suspect that nVidia GPU's are holding the upper hand at the moment.
