Strange, my config file didn't get reset..

As CoD changed my res from 1920x1200 to 1280x1024 (I checked options before starting a flight too).. to give me an invalid initial conclusion that FPS/performance had hugely increased (and the Dev's said it would), it makes me wonder whether this happened to them and they didn't know it..

Because in fact, there is no FPS/performance increase. For me at least. :p

Same for me, beside the window mode when not playing at your desktop resolution, no sensible changes.

You're getting high frame rates anyway! Regardless.

Yeah, I'm not complaining... Just curious since my biggest problem was stutters which are improved.

It took them six (eight ?) years to code the game. Anybody that thinks they will fix this game in a week or two is a bit naive.

I'm pretty convinced that stutters are related to some kind of disk access. I 'feels' like something is being loaded in each time they occur.

Im playing IL2 with UP2.01 again together with my other IL2 buddies. I suggest you do the same we were all really disappointed about the state of the game it is now.

Putting this in the freezer i dont feel like playing a game with horrible framerates.

It could be. Try using a RAM drive if you have enough spare, seems to work for some people. If this makes a difference it will only be in the stuttering, not FPS on which it has no effect.

Yup first thing I looked for when people rave about good performance and then post their config. The standard the game should be judged on is 1920x1080 at least.

The patch is 'beta'.. we have it so we can actualy test it and report any issues so that any other problems on other rigs can be sorted hopefully by the weekend when the new official patch comes out..
