LOL. Yes, the picture is compressed in a strange way by google services as it was taken at 1680x1050 and shows only at 1 440px × 801px. Probably I should choose another one. Just have no time. And yes, I run low forest and low buildings with mip-map and textures set in drivers for quality instead of high quality.

This is not the point. The point is it is completely your choice: to have 40+ fps smooth with low settings OR to have graphics set on high with stutters OR purchase a gtx580 w/3gb vram OR wait 2 years till next-gen hardware becomes affordable for you OR play another simulator with 2 y.o. engine. You can not have it all at once.

Take responsibility, make your choices. There is no need to cry here seeking attention or pity.

Just look around: people who have adequate hardware do not have any complains

In 2 years you will think that this kind of hardware is too outdated and cheap for you and will ask for more features to be included into CloD to load your brand new graphics card to 50% at least.

This game is built for 2013 and to last for another 5-7 years. And you can run it silk smooth with 2011 gtx580. It sounds like a miracle to me.

definately try uninstalling and running again.

i just did that and it seems to have improved performance. i think it's got something to do with cleaning out the old beta patches and ini.files.

Yesterday I fired up 1946 as I had FW190 withdrawal, after 5 minutes I put it away again, it's almost arcade compared to COD. Get a rig like mine, it works for me!

come on i have a I7 950 ....and a 5970 2 gig cart and and 8 gig ram on board .

if that is not good enough than 90 % of the CLOD user cant run this game .

by the way i did reinstall the game complete but it still give me stutters over ground .

What resolution are you using with that 27" monitor?

[Robin2k7]

uhm 1920x1080 ....like my monitor resolution .

No no I was just thinking of the obvious. If it's native res was 2560x1440 it might be worth trying lower. Plenty of people run at 1920 though.

I'm just as baffled as Blackdog as I can't understand why mine runs so well. I never said my rig was the most powerful I said it runs it well, I can only recommend it. I think I'm seeing a pattern with guys that have top end rigs but are suffering, they all seem to have ATi cards.

I play the game with almost everything set on full/high, I have a CRT monitor so my native resolution is 'only' 1280x1024 (IIRC I'm not currently on it)

I'd say the only bad graphical issues I encounter, are the occasional flashing cloud and odd shadow effects on the ground. Once a week I'll have a brief stutter. All these things never will bother me and are so infrequent that they aren't worth noticing. The great graphics FM and DM far outweigh any of this.

Maybe I'm really lucky with buying the right hardware, or maybe I'm not as hard to please as some?

[Robin2k7]

yes i heard indeed that a G-force cart is doing better jobs than ATI . still i don't want to trow away a 400 euro Video cart only because they might think it perform less in CLOD .

i keep saying it ....sound , graphic (terrain) , stutters over ground really need lots of improvement .
those patches made some changes but not a lot . dont ask me why .

the look in the cockpit is amazing and over water i don't experience any problem .

so fore now to run it smooth i stick to the water (not in it i hope) haha

[Robin2k7]

its so strange sometime i do 60fps and on the same place suddenly it drops to 20 ...i really wounder what is going on hahaha !!
