CH, I just did it in the Softclub folder and it seemed to work. I didn't touch the Steam folder at all.

My Black Death track average went from 19 to 21.It still stutters and has short freezes.

Good catch there, will try it out tomorrow.

As for what to edit, it's the conf.ini in the documents folders you need as that's where your settings are applied. The conf.ini inside the game's main folder is like a "default draft backup" of sorts, just a default base setting that the game uses as a starting point: if for example you delete your conf.ini from the documents folders, the game checks on each run and if it doesn't find it, it will copy over the conf.ini from its main folder as a starting point, but all settings are applied in the conf.ini that lies within the documents folder.

Once again, thanks Pupo, I noticed that the original entry had two spaces after the string. May be it was just my file but all the other strings have the = sign directly after it. The extra spaces may not have any significance but thought it may be worth mentioning, I removed the spaces as well.

I'm wondering why this would make a difference. I don't have win 7. Is there an option for (32+16) 48 bit color in the monitor settings? So, if you have a graphics card that can handle it and win 7, I guess the extra data per pixel makes it run smoother?

Id like to think this works for me too...seems like an improvement yes...not a huge fps, but smoother..

Big + on my computer!
Can now fly over London with ALOT less stutters. Could even increase "amount of buildings! to medium setting and play happily!

I changed the conf.ini in both the game folder and in my documents folder just to be sure...

Thank you!

Amazing, this little fix and my game has gone from barely playible on low to medium settings, now changed to high and ultra high settings on all and no problems or shuttering at all. Thankyou very much for this find. This is now really a truely amazing game.
