Il-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs Of Dover BETA Patch v 1.03.15527

#1 09-06-2011, 06:59 PM

Ok first patch thoughts.

1) Terrain colour is a lot better.
2) Shore line looks much much better
3) Sounds are are massive improvement, though not tested everything yet.
4) FPS took at hit, pre patch on Blackdeath trk, with everything maxed out at 1920X1200 I would average 57FPS, now Im at 47FPS so quite a drop.
5) Tree shadows still flickering but dont seem as bad
6) Still no FSAA???

This is a beta patch. The steam version will come out after this has been tested in the community and will automatically download and install.

If you want to try the patch out now, head to the sticky topic at the top of the forum and download it (500mb). Then you will need to extract it over your game files.

Im going to run some test now buddy, loading times seem a tad longer but stuttering seems better, but more tests required at the moment.

S!

Sounds are better, especially for Bf109E

Bf109E-4 is SWEET! Land colors and overall feel mucho better as the shore lines. Shadows flicker still and the AMD users will notice the "3 lines" in horizon, but VERY faintly.

Most performance hit for me are the shadows and trees. Especially trees cause stuttering at low altitude flying. Up high no problemo. The beta is a leap towards CoD being what it should have been so remaining hopeful for the future patches

In short, an improvement in a positive way while some issues remain.
