why would i lie? i dont get stutters nor would i lie about.And my card isnt mid range. Its faster than most 460s and some higher cards.:-P

Sorry but probably not.
I changed my install from a HDD to a 120gb PCIe SSD and it made no difference to the choppyness at all.

When I had the ram drive enabled (I tried 2 and 4 Gb for sfs file), no disk access was going on, but I still had the stutters. I did not see any improvement, although it's quite a nifty and smart thing to do. I guess CoD still has a long way to go and will need several big core patches before it's a smooth over land as over sea.

Ps. I'm using a RAID1 disk config so read ops., if any, should still be fast.

It do not work
 

Hello,

I have tried every thing, Ramdisk, the config.ini modifications (both of them), to empty the memory. It does not work after one and a half day of testing.

I hope the patch shall work better. Waitting...

Have a nice day.

I think it is perfectly clear at this point that all of the stuttering problems are caused by overflowing vram. Get the settings adjusted so that you aren't running out and the game will run fine.

Hopefully further patching will allow more details on a smaller vram footprint. But I think the number one thing the game needs is estimation of vram use in the setup screen so that you can tweak settings to keep it under your limit.

Is there any vram usage statistics on the forums?

Can anyone advise a program to monitor vram usage on an ATI card?

In my opinion this software is not hardware limited at all (either CPU or GPU) but code limited.

I'm sure Luthier himself would acknowledge that. This software was rushed out of the door with very little, if any at all code optimisation and I would caution anybody from running out and buying the latest and greatest hardware to try and get this game running smoothly over land.

The best thing to do is wait until all the core patches have been released and then take stock on wether any hardware upgrades are needed.

Crap! I've tried this a couple of times now but when I try starting the sim I just see that "crosshair" icon (with a plane outlined inside) for half a second and then it goes away. The som never starts. If I restore the files all works (as poorly) as before.

Any ideas?

I don't think there's a quick solution right now (even 2 or 4 Gb GPU will not fix this baby) and nothing will really help unless they fix the game code. I have a very fast system and lot's of ram and a fast gpu and still it stutters. I cannot imagine my system will not be enough to run this game (come on, an i7-2600 and 8 Gb ddr3-1600..).

The game engine seems to be the root cause and we can only wait. It has potential, but in its current state it's very bad....
