Here are the settings which made the game playable on my crappy London laptop (my monster rig is at home, in Bucharest): ASUS Aspire 5740G (Intel Core 2 i3 330M 2.13 GHz, ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 with 500 MB VRAM, 4 GB DDR3, 5400 rotations HDD) with an Windows 7 64 bits Home edition.

In order to use them, you need to:
- buy the IL2 BoB (details thread)
- disable Steam Cloud (by right clicking the game in Steam Library -> Properties -> Updates -> uncheck Steam Cloud)
- disable Steam Game Community (by right clicking the game in Steam Library -> Properties -> Generals -> uncheck Steam Community)
- in game settings -> video options:

resolution: 800x600x32
- fulscreen: off
- model detail: high
- buildings detail: very low
- landscape details: low
- forest: very low
- visual effects: high
- anti-aliasing: off
- damage decals: high
- buildings amount: low
- landscape shading: low
- grass: off
- shadows: on
- roads: off

- in game settings -> realism:

 full realism excepting:
- realistic ground collisions: off
- antropomorphic control: off
- no AI control: off
- engine temperature effects: off

- in conf.ini (the one from C:/Users/<user_name>/Documents/1C/IL2, NOT the one from IL2 BoB's Steam app folder):


With all of these, I can around 15 FPS inside cockpit/30 FPS 3rd view over the channel, in a mission with 10 aircrafts, no stuttters.


Missions with english text (and a partial menu text)

unpack the archive directly into your Steam IL2 BoB app's folder (overwriting).

hey adonys!thx again for your knowledge!
btw,if i open the conf.ini(not the one in steam folder) there is no antiepilepcy in the BOB section.
