[skouras]

Luthier with this beta you said if we experience some stutters over cities to lower our option for buildings details.....why....with previous betas i have everything on high and very high with excellent performance and i dont want to lower my settings....
i have some freezes and stutters over cities and the multiplayer is a mess...many lags freezes and stutters and if i hit the exit thats it,....no exit
i have to alt-ctrl-delete to get away
i hope you fix this issues and many thanks for the hard work guys

U too! Try to switch off Hyper-thread from bios. Does it any good? Ive noticed that lot of players that cant get it work has i7. This game uses max 4 cores so there is no use extra 8...

I saw in the readme that this patch had performance increase for 4+ cores.

cores.

SLI not working for me, 2nd GPU showing at idle. Rebooted cleared cache ect. Am using latest nvidia drivers.
MP framerates are scattered, going anywhere from 2-32 with no gradual increase-decrease in between, tried taking off from same airfield in FMB and fps was steady at 37.
Also have the no exit button in MP that others are having, have to kill the game in task manager.

SLI not working.
Hard to fly over LeHavre and lod problem with the industrial area (factory and fuel tank desappearing depending by angle of view).
Multiplayer unplayable due to stutter and low frame.
Exit dos not work in multiplayer.
Not found more improvement .
Better luck next time.

I7 920, Nvidia GTX295, win7 ultimate 64bit, 6giga RAM

Exit dos not work in multiplayer here too.
