Not everything is CloD`s fault.

ah... I see, you already have MS flight?

please... do me a favor... stop defending CoD

I've not been reading too much here for a while, waiting for the game to be in a better state, and just a bit surprised to read this:

Is that true? I thought they'd been trying to optimise it since the epilepsy debacle, have they said that there's a lot more optimising to do?

Must admit I am slightly bemused by the epilepsy thing. A few months ago they were saying anti-epilepsy measures were an absolute must for legal reasons despite massive performance hit. Then it was made optional with the ability to disable it - which of course everyone did. And now it has to be disabled because of the psychodelic colour effects.

I like how you guys move the problems to something else...

I didn't say that. Please don't put words in my mouth that I did not say.

Yep. According to Ilya's (Luthier's) last post to this forum the recoding should result in 50% increase in performance or better.

That's been my finding as well with my system. I fly the ATAG server and find I usually can fly/respawn/fly for an hour or two uninterrupted. Last night I got a CTD (launcher.exe error) after about one hour of play. The night before no crashes after approx 1.5 hrs of play before I called it quits for the night. Per your note above, it wouldn't surprise me that a 32-bit low-gig system only manages 20 minutes or so before The Big Crunch. (and it only seems to happen when you've finally saddled up behind someone and are about to mete out swift justice!)
