I believe this is incorrect information.

I am running the International version. Before turning Off the Anti Epilepsy filter by way of the Video options screen I checked my Conf.ini and there were no references to it. I applied de selected the Anti Epilepsy setting in the Video options screen. I quit the Sim and then looked in My Documents ...... version of Conf.ini and I see the Anti epilepsy line entered by its selection in game:

[BOB]
EpilepsyFilter=0

Correct spelling as well. I look inside the confs.ini and there is no refrence there at all.

There is no longer any requirement for manual editing of the conf.ini file.

Okay, thanks for the info... but there are two locations for config files.
one, being in the Documents folder of the user's desktop (labelled 1C Softclub
and the other, being in the Steam folder under Steam Apps/ common.

which is the correct one? as both seem to (?) be used whether connection is made to the steamcloud or not.

The guys at the Sukhoi site say the softclub location is right for the Russian version..

Thanks for the info!

Have you changed anything else than epilepsy and ProcessAffinityMask settings?

I played 4 hours yesterday and got 35fps and 50fps without the cockpit.

I have AMDx6 processor and the value for ProcessAffinityMask should be 63.
It does not make any difference if I use this option or not.
Mainly the 1st core is only used.

Is there any other value for AMDx6 what would do the trick?

Phenom II X6 1055T/AM3 2.8GHz
GIGABYTE NVIDIA GTX465 1GB
6GB 1333MHZ DDR3

The key settings I changed were turning the grass OFF, turing the building number and detail as low as I could. Turned roads OFF Those were the changed that made the most fps change with the least loss of environment for me

do some research on "Core Parking". at least for Intel processors on Windows 7/ Vista... not too sure if it applies to AMD processors or not.

Yes, and note that disabling core parking in Power Options doesn't always work. You may need a registry fix - see here.

I tried out your confi.

Indeed the CPU isnt the Problem !

I guess its the GPU VRAM. All with 2GB VRAM seem to have less problems and i got another strange thing witch is maybe driver relatet.
See a screenshot i taken over channel 6 hurries vs 6 do 215. Setting med - high, getting about 30 fps witch is too low for my system i guess. But after the last Donier was going and only 6 Hurries left suddenly my FPS broke down to 0.8 and got strange output in the info window.
Afterburner showing that almost 1GB of VRAM is used.....and core clock of gpu suddenly went down O_O

Maybe this is helpful for developers, hope so

what does make ";ProcessAffinityMask=2"? My setting is "2". Is it wrong? My cpu is Q6600 (intel Quadcore, very old).
