Il-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover: Patch 1.00.14072 -ARIL 15

[tf_neuro]

* Completely removed overload assessment from carburetters. Rolls-Royce engines will now cut if overload is negative, and will not cut if it is positive. (old values were sneezing at .5G, and cut-out at .25 which we felt were dead on, but this apparently confused most of the players)

IMHO 'most of the players' should learn how to fly, rather than forcing the rest of us on a dumbed-down, less realistic version....

But anyhow.
Getting the patch, I'll be submitting reports

(please consider switch back to dead-on settings or at least make them optional. Some of us like realism...)

Totally agree.

I was astonished when discovered that the compass behaves like a real one, with same instrument errors. Keep this real!

Does it work?

I thought Luthier said that it wasn't compatible!!!

is running very dreamy for me now on my i7 560 gtx ti with 1080p, great job guys.

+1 for the realism I'm a sim noob but leave the planes as realistic as possible

Hi Ilya!

Very Good!

Tested one of our Third Party Campaign Missions with about 64 AC in Combat. Having at 4.000 Meters 76 FPS in Cockpit on Medium settings!

Excellent Job!

Now we need a user friendly FMB like in old IL2 and the world is perfect
A Userinterface for Campaign, as we wrote you, with Promotion and Medal System and the Engine is going to be a useable game

Cheers and Thanks
Thomas

thanks luthier, download

Downloading, installed, and quick tested.
Much, much better. Nice job.
Game runs smoothly at medium settings (no stuttering at all) and almost smoothly at high settings (some stuttering over land).
I havent tested flying down low over a town yet, but from what I've seen so far it looks like it's getting better.
A gaming buddy on medium end machine reports no big changes for him, but we had been warned that this patch was mostly for high end boxes... It surely did a lot of good for me!


Screenshots (including a screenie of the settings used for each series of shots) are available Here <=latest screenies marked 'Apr.14 Patch installed' have FPS reported by Fraps in the bottom-right corner. (NOTE: 25-30 FPS is good enough as long as it doesnt stutter...)

Also getting wierd textures I didnt have before in LW campaign first mission (using original textures)

Edit - rebooted - still did the same - noticed gfx card fan was on high (mine usually stays quiet as I have 3 200mm fans & 1 120 in HAF X case) - switched Asus smart doctor smart temp off and back to auto fan setting - bobs your uncle, one reboot later no odd textures - so may just have been artifacts due to GPU running too hot - will repost if I get them again - but looked unlike artifacts I've ever seen before from temp....
