So Disapointed after all the patches

[Doc_uk]

I can run RoF and Dcs A10-c Maxed out, no problems at all, its only since the last patch that ive struggled, with this game
And yes i should be able to play this ok with my rig, so it just go's to show how badly this game is optimized

Doc have you tried deleting the shader cache files and config files from your IL-2 user directory?

There are issues with the game using old files, deleting these files forces the game to create new ones which are based on the latest version.

Hi Doc,

I too have a mondo rig. It's one of the best you could build at the time of COD's release. I have also been complaining about 4 performance issues that have appeared only after 2 patch realeses ago. I even spoke with Luth dog and he said I shouldn't have any problems running everything on high.

1) stutters near land or when looking in it's direction
2) FPS hit in the 20% range where originally I had a surplus.
3) Anti Alaising doesn't work
4) Deteriorating performance if multiple missions are played.

Again, I wouldn't mind these issues if it was stated that they are working to improve them. However, there has been no mention of these on the "to do" list.

I'm just worried they have given up on the performance issues and are assuming that they no longer exist except for the "minor performance" issues stated to be resolved in a few months time.

So, just decided to install this game again,
While my game ran fine the patch befor this Patch, nearly maxed out, Its now no go with this latest patch.
my game now runs as bad as when i first downloaded it from steam
Lagy, stutters all over, no crash damage, sound problems, no full screen, shimering trees are still there
And as much as they get fixed in a new patch, they end up breaking more
It makes me wonder just who is working on this game
Anyways time to uninstall again, till the next time, but i wont bank on anything being fixed

With your system you should be fine.

But you say you can't so you must not be able!

I will tell you this -If you do not want a flight sim with realism do not play Cliffs of Dover. You may not want to watch this video. It will only make you more upset. lol

Its really strange, the different results people are getting with even good rigs.

There are issues with deleting old files although I never did that as far as I can remember.

I'm having no problems running CoD and since the last patch (and as a shot in the dark, perhaps since installing RoF) I don't get the MP sound bug. True, the servers don't have many players on atm but while I don't get the problem recently (typically 1 - 2 hours play), others on the same server do.

I'm only running 1680x1050 at mostly High settings with buildings at medium and forest off (don't like those trees or the guys that hide in them).

Well, as I've said before, the constant is the game software itself. The variable is the hardware, its software environment including what else is running and the hardware settings (e.g. Nvidia Settings manager) and game settings.

That's quite a barrel of monkeys when you consider the variation possibilities.

I'm PC literate but not being too techy, I'm never sure what people mean when they same 'optimise'. Just what does software need to be optimised for? Seems to me that 'optimisation' is a fix for 'it don't work in the accepted windows environment'. Or is it the Video cards etc that don't fit the generic Windows bill? :headscratch:

optimise...that means you can make buildings looking good without using million poligons or textures or whataver and to run well on modern rigs....thats somehow simplified explanation but youll get the point..

In computer science, program optimization or software optimization is the process of modifying a software system to make some aspect of it work more efficiently or use fewer resources.[1] In general, a computer program may be optimized so that it executes more rapidly, or is capable of operating with less memory storage or other resources, or draw less power.....

So were was the realism, in that vid?
1. you had icons on, not very real
2. you were using outside view, not very real
