Simply rename or delete the Ubisoft logo video found in \Steam\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\parts\core\GUI.
It has fixed the issue for my HD4870 and alot of other AMD users!  |
Woot! I'm off to try this.
I have a 4890 which used to run at 240Mhz, after the latest beta patch it runs at 500Mhz. The maximum factory specified clock speed is 850 Mhz.
I set it to 850Mhz with Ati tray tools and got 30 or so extra FPS, but i don't know what else to change there (fan profiles, voltage, etc) so it ends up crashing and rebooting my PC after 40 minutes or so. I guess the catalyst drivers automatically take care of these things, because it uses 850Mhz on all of my other games without any problems.
If you solution works then the sim is fully playable for me. I'm currently getting 20-30 FPS with the GPU at 500Mhz and 50+ FPS if i run it at 850Mhz. While 30 is very playable for me, it gives less of a margin for them to drop when there's a lot of things suddenly happening at once on the screen. On the other hand, 50 is just great as i'm limited to 60 FPS anyway due to having Vsync on and a 60Hz monitor.
I'm off to try it, wish me luck
