1920x1080, london and black death look great.

i5 2500k : 4ghz. 2x gtx 460. 4gb 1600 ram, win7/64.

What are your min/max/avg fps in the black death track ? Im just asking because on my system with high settings @ 1680x1050 the explosions are really killing my fps.

EDIT: In general it seems like it's my processor that's definitely the bottleneck, changing the settings from low to high doesnt really affect the fps that much.

i7 920 @ 4 GHz
6Gb 1600MHz DDR 3
Geforce GTX 580
Windows 7 64 bit

How about starting with:

If your going to upload a beta patch for others to test then don’t use some useless tin pot heap of crap like megaupload to host the file instead use e.g. rapidshare which at least provides a button for you to download from as a “free” user after the countdown time, plus e.g. the rapidshare site is seldom down and they don’t tend to screw there page html up.

I have NO problem with waiting just as I would wait with rapidshare what I do have a problem with regarding Megaupload is if there page isn’t serving up corrupt html so is not working then it serves up a working page with a countdown but NO download ever starts and there is NO button/link to press to start the download if it fails to start automatically after the countdown LIKE ALMOST ALL OTHER SITES DO!.

I don’t see why I should change from IE that works on 99.9% of websites to some other browser which inevitably will require you to still have IE for the much bigger quantity of sites they wont work on properly.

Tried the torrent and they worked for me. Maybe something wrong with the downloaded zipfile, imo.

Cool, I'll try that.

I have also gotten a significant loss in performance, along with artifacts and a general feeling of disappointment. Seriously though, how do you roll back to the official version? We'll get there soon.

Crank up steam and right click Cods entry, and then select properties, and the "local files" tab, from there verify the integrity of the game cache. It will take some time checking all the files and will proceed to down load and replace any files that are different from the official version, NOTE, the ff files will be left in place, as they were not previously part of the official version.

HOWEVER, as I keep telling people who suffered a large fps drop with this patch, even here in this very thread. Go to audio options and select Ambisonc, do not ask questions just do it, save, and exit the game, it won't save and change the audio rendering until you do this (another bug). Then crank up the game again and enjoy better fps; the sound was borked using the other audio engine in anything but stereo.
