Hey.. Your the one that said there were crystal clear examples of bugs that qualified CoD as a 'alpha' product.. So dont get upset with me because you were not able to provide '1'

Sorry but you are wrong.. Take a closer look at that link you yourself provided and note it says DX 10 and DX 11 API support..

On a related note, you can edit your conf.ini file such that CoD will use DX11 feature levels..

So not only does CoD make use of the DX 11 API but it can also run DX 11 feature levels.. Just not very well because at the time of the release, Oleg noted there were issue with Microsofts DX 11 features level that caused 1C to default to DX 10 feature levels

Just as I can not converse (argue) with someone that claims there are plenty of CLEAR bugs examples in CoD that qualify it as a 'alpha' release..

But can not provide one

Since you provide no evidence it is the wrong choice. ie. prove there are no bugs.
I still choose C End of argument.

Ah.. Now I see why your so upset!

You seem to be under the impression that I said there are no bugs! Which is not true at all! All I am saying is that per Maus's definition of bugs CoD does not qualify as being called a 'alpha' product. I hope that helps clear things up for you and allows you to calm down a bit

I disagree.. it ended a few posts back when you were unable to provide '1' example

I still choose C Most fits CoD And I'm not upset.

I've never experienced a crash or freeze with COD, but I have a relatively highend system, with very few background programs running. Infact I run COD on a separate SSD with only a copy of Windows 7 64bit, and Hotas peripherals installed on it. My every day computing is done on different HHD. I just reboot my system to the COD SSD whenever I want to fly. Until the sim is better optimized your going to need a very clean fast system to experience less problems other than feature issues. SSD's aren't that expensive anymore. You can easily pick one up under a hundred dollars. Unfortunately combat flight sims have always required high end systems if you want to run it with all the bells and whistles turned on.

I run it at 3.6 ghz and a GTX 580 with 6gigs of ram Win64, do you think my velociraptor is too slow for this sim and is causing all the stuttering?

I do get some slight stuttering when flying low over the London, but only when looking side ways over my wingtip at close trees and building going by. I can't prove anything, but I really think having the sim, copy of Windows, and Hota peripherals on a separate SSD helps. There is not alot of background apps taking up memory or cpu cycles, and its never searching my other drives for anything.

You may have some background apps or the harddrive needs defragging to cause your major stutter problems.

Same here.. Well ok I do recall the game locking up maybe a handful of times.. but that was so long ago I don't even remember which patch it was that happened with

Me too! And it is my opinion that the reason I don't see the stutters that most are reporting has alot to do with the fact that I am using a SSD.

I have not done that yet.. Next time I do a clean up Im going to do the duel boot thing

True dat

Bingo!

This is not a cheap 'hobby'.. Flight sims are not your run of the mill eye candy game that only requires a good vid card.. Flight sims are typically much more demanding on your PC resorces than most games

Just to be crystal.. I never said you could not choose 'C'! You are more than welcome to your opinion! All I was pointing out is your choice of 'C' ake opinion has no merits! As in nothing to back up the claim that CoD qualifies as an 'alpha' product.

Ah that is good news! I am glad to hear you figured out what API means!

Snippy comment dude. Attitude not appreciated.

Always did. DX 11 is a collection of application programming interfaces (APIs) for handling tasks related to multimedia, especially game programming and video, on Microsoft platforms.
