So if you tire of this debacle, there are working SIMS that could satisfy until this one is figured out.

Ive got them both

plus Rice of flight, but to be honest, i only want Cliffs of dover, ive always had a fasination with the battle of britian

I also think that doing this Changed Render to D3DD_11 from D3DD_10
Reverts it back to dx9, but im unsure

Unsure what your on about here, Changed PAM to 64 from 14.......Were? and what does it do?

S!

PAM = Process Affinity Mask. Can be found in the conf.ini file. Need to test if there's any difference with it on or disabled.

But mines on 15 whitch is 4 cores? isnt it

And blue lines are still there, and im getting bad stutters at the begining of each mission

IIRC 15 uses all 4 cores evenly.. some people say use 14 to leave core 1 for your OS but I am running 15 with no issues..

If you delete your conf.ini, make sure you re enable the PAM settings.. remove the semi colon in front of it..

Good tip, JG, its somthing i have forgoting to do many a times

We have lots of BOB missions for 46 mod on the 352map

any way I believe the right setting for 4 cores is 14

I tested this and yes it does work on my machine. plug it in remove the semicolon and run performance monitor, watch the difference before clod and during clod. You should be able to see the demand on RAM as well... What I did notice was there was never a CPU usage higher than 24%... RAM topped out at 5.6G... about 50% of what I have.

I do not turn off programs/processess that start on start up. I had CCC open because I was monitoring the GPU, I had MS Word open because I was capturing the info, with screen shots and writing, I had the CPU & Ram monitors on watching them, Including the performance monitoring in task manager, I see 12 CPUs in the performace monitor (12 Threads i guess), there are also 70 other processes running in the background. And Ofcourse CLOD. The graphs plainly showed the distribution across the cores. Before starting CLOD Main activity is in 1st core. Clod running, 1st core was minimal and there was pretty much even distribution across the others. You can see the RAM spike when I arrived at the furball I was testing, there are about 50 planes in that one. Good Luck to you

What he's saying is that Core 0 (i.e. the 1st core) takes care of Windows and apps, while cores 1,2 & 3 are utilised by CloD. That's what =14 implies. That way there is no need to mess about setting affinities for things like TIR and CH software as they default to Core 0.
