I found tonight's session very hesitant on the frame rates when panning with trackIR, and stutters were quite bad, particularly when the voice reports enemy aircraft. Big pauses there.

:(

Dutch i have radio stuff off anouther hmm!!!

Hey, JT, I know it doesn't fix trees popping up, but have you had any opportunity to engage human-flown enemy bombers yet? I remember on my PC (pre-"fixit") that this was a showstopper when attacking Bliss and five others in their Ju88 formation. Every time I would go near 'em, my frame rate would instantly drop from the high eighties down to ONE (count 'em: ONE! LOL). It was hard just to stay in the air during this slideshow, but when the enemy formation was past (by a mile or so), the frame rate would quickly go back to normal. I tried re-engaging this human-flown formation three more times; same result each time. Never a problem with AI-flown bomber formations, though. I'm hoping your "fixit" addresses this problem.

Snapper tonight on atag behind that 20 bomber formation an i think every 109 in game (man they were everywhere ) seen a slow down but playable teens fps . Only came across 2 110s seemed ok, no big differance ,The game is running smooth enough to get accurate shooting in as i hit 1 hard after making pass on a spit, an the second flew right infront of my guns salute

I'm running every option including ssao and vsync and over water not a single gitch , looks great . My rig is pretty average i7 860 with 2.8GZ 16GB ram and a GTX 570. Over land there is a very slight slowdown but no lurches ..Ao I would say yes the trick works great .

Worked awesome for me. Was great to have everything on max and fly through explosions without any slow down at all. Really cool. Thanks for your post mate.

Can't really tell if it's working for me.

On ATAG this morning attacking large formations of AI bombers 20+ escorted by 4+ player 109's.
Everyting going smooth and slick until I got within range of the bombers and it turned into a slide show.

(I was attacked during the slide show and got into a spin, fell from 19,000' finally recovering at 1,000'!!! tried everything, conventional recovery no good :( ended up with gear and flaps down and engine off before I stopped the Autorotation! :) then quick engine start and back up to the fight and repeat the whole process! Except before I spun this time I managed to take the wing off a ju-88 :) bit like dogfighting in PowerPoint! )

Could be my ping rate 290ms+ but no joy for me. :(

S!

Skoshi, that was one funny description :D Power point : Battle of the Slide show! :D

Skoshi... have a saying in the Army...death by PowerPoint.. quite abt really

I've seen smoother game play by doing this, haven't tested it yet though with big formations

Hey Guys, Got 2 things worked like a charm, no stutters , no slide show for ati an nvidea users . Win7 USERS , Go into control panel to Programs an Features Go into Microsoft. NET Framework 4 Client Profile. double click on it , An repair it , After repair it will ask restart do it . Then go to C PROGRAM FILES X86 , Then Steam Then Steamapps, Then common . il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover Then redist Then go into DirectX Folder , Scroll down til you see When you see DXSETUP Double click on it , an run it!! For they guys that did this , THE CHEERING SECTION IS OUT, All of us had the same results. NO SLIDE SHOW NOT A STUTTER. Even with 3 spits an 7 or 8 109s at 1000 feet above the the 3 base close together north of the French point ( our normal slide show, Repeated 3 times , Stayed hard on 60 fps an high 75 my vsync on all setting high an original , For the first time since i bought this game , it was amazing!!! If this helps tell others ( for me an several others who did this ) All i can say is WOW !!! Note i did not say it fixed trees let me know?

BEWARE!!!!!

I decided to try the above out of interest (and stupidity) even though I wasn't experiencing stutters or poor frame-rates.

The result:- Halved fps, stutters, slow loading of textures ie a completely borked game.

If you're already running ok my advice is to leave well alone!
