LMAO.... I was having the same feeling. I may just go away for a year or so and stick to my il2 UP 2.01 and not be so damned depressed watching this nightmare unfold.

I told you guys to use the english menu screenshots as referrence..

The struggle for FPS should bring the AntiEpilepcy=0 setting in the conf.ini file (after deactivating game's Steam Cloud option). The biggest FPS gain from settings can be gained by deactivating the shadows/roads/clouds/landscape details/visual effects/clickable cockpit(on/off with F10). Resolution doesn't give much of a difference, which actually means the bottleneck is not on the graphic card.

The game is not optimized at all. It's enough to watch the Pilot and Plane menu, which are only displaying a single pilot/plane, and see how poor (performance wise) is the rendering done.

Thanks man this helped! It works now, and it doesn't lag as terrible as I thought it would.

Downloading in my new Russian Steam account right now.

I didn't get the security check. I just selected pay by credit card in YuPlay and off she went.

14 mins 11 secs left.

First thing I'm doing is looking for the file with flag that enables English. I did it in BS - maybe I can get lucky and find it here.....

On the other hand - it might not be setup that way. We will see....

Thanks to the Adonys!

yuplay is asking for the security check only if you never used your cc with them before.

Well, to be honest - hate to admit it - but I did buy WOP from YuPlay so I already had an account.

I'm pretty sure though I used a different card than the one I bought WOP with.

S!

I understand you haven't spent so much time... But, when you do, how does the fps change if you go up high or far away from larger villiages/cities/object heavy areas? The claim from Oleg and Co. was that the game was very memory hogging thanks to size of map and the number of objects.. If the number of objects in the vicinity of flight can be reduced, then fps should bump up if Oleg and Co.s claim is true. :???:

Wow, for the price difference alone it might be worth the frustration of playing with Russian menu's. . . nah.

Anyone got that translation working yet? Given that its written by the same guys that did IL-2 have any of you tried the same method we used to use before when 'modding' was brand new? Renaming the 'menu.eng' files 'menu.rus' or something like that?

same here Gunny :) ..ill race you to the hanger...ready..set..GO! :)

the price is great but i am also going to the buy the regular version...im not trying to jip Oleg , i just want the Stallion not the Gelding Version :)
