Well.. " I don't wear such a headset" If you fly the sim you should be like if you were.. simple..


Anyway The sounds need tuning and i guess it will be very good.

So...fire up the game to see what the patch is like...Quick mission, Hurris v 109s...Planes in air still look fab...Tracers seem to be improvement...Approve the sun glare. Anyway, I avoid being shot down and head for home. Once over Blighty I'm disappointed with the new ground colours - at once both faded and dirtied up. Still, nothing game-breaking. Land the old hurribus at Hawkinge, taxi to a halt and open the canopy. What happen next I'm gobsmacked by...

I hear a growl in the distance, which soon becomes recognizably Merlin-like. I see my wingman approach and proceed to do a victory roll over the field. He does this a couple more times, but what really amazes me is that I could almost be at an airshow in terms of the engine-sound. It's not quite a proper Merlin, but just the way the note changes as the plane manouevres is very evocative and unlike anything I've heard in a sim to date.

It may not have an impact on the way the game plays, but I just wanted to give the devs the thumbs' up for this enhancement

Very pleased with latest patch. I did get an initial very noticable fps hit and more stuttering but did all the usual routines plus I found the Launcher.exe had gone from nVidia control panel and had to be added again. Now have an increase in fps and very few stutters. Great to see the cockpit reflections again. One thing that has always been missing and although not important would be nice to see is objects reflected in the water especially trees at the waters edge as in IL-2 Classic. They were in the early CloD screen shots, certainly from ships but like quite a few things have dropped by the wayside. Maybe after the important stuff is sorted they will come back.

Flyingblind- what do you mean by:
"I found the Launcher.exe had gone from nVidia control panel and had to be added again. Now have an increase in fps and very few stutters. " ?
I have a Nvidia card, is there an adjustment I can make to increase framerates and remove stutters?

You can set options for quality via the nvidia cpl for every single application, if you like. So you can add a custom profile for CloD (here you must select the launcher.exe in you steamapps clod dir as application) where you can set various options to enhance either quality or performance.

Ask google about a step-by-step howto.

Ok thanks, I thought about some command line to add to the.exe by the property panel.

yes I did. I'm not holding any pilot's licence but I did fly in a cessna once or twice. It was not very 5.1 surround hyper-bass-boost, to say the least. Also, I didn't wear a leather cap.
I propose that if you want to muffle your sound to leather-cap level, do it yourself...
