new card installed new memory installed stress tested with kamikaze track for 1 hour full effects 1680*1020 - breezed it ran CloD and its fucking worse , it looks like a windows 98 game I even installed the patch and no better I have tried 3 different drivers and no better tried every other game I have and they run like a dream so I have spent a shit load of money on a coaster and new equipment and still cant play the fucking thing Ik away to get a few whiskeys down my throat and try to calm down

From 1c forums 1. Optimization of homes is almost ready, it is necessary to test for another day or two to make sure that it does not add unexpected glitches. Houses have become so fast that the flight with full houses are now just a couple fps slower than the performance without homes. 2. Optimization of the forest goes a little slower, but still looks optimistic. We'll add new setting “Variety” for woods, which roughly speaking allows you to place fir trees instead of various shrubs and trees that would raise productivity. Otherwise, the forest will be the faster due to some deterioration in the overall impression – far away trees will appear more slowly. 3. Optimization of the shadows - a separate problem from the houses (in test number 1 was measured without shadows). As it turned out, the problem is not in the code, but in the models, particularly in some cabins. We use very precise alpha on small details and this causes very big slowdowns. We must check all models, to identify all such places and to correct them; as a result we will have very strong growth of FPS everywhere, due to small loss in beauty. 4. Support for SLI - do, as soon as the number 1 and number 3. As I have already written somewhere, it can be very rapid fix but also may require serious consultation with the manufacturers of the cards that will take much longer. I can not yet say for sure. 5. Microfrizes over the landscape caused 99% by the trees. Working on number 3 will solve this. Instant uploads will still remain in the game, as it is impossible to keep all the giant map in the memory all the time. It is necessary to dynamically load the required landscaping. This happens, in my opinion, once every 12 kilometers, and is smooth and size, so it will be very little noticeable. 6. MP windows are almost ready, we need a day or two for tests. 7. Overall graphics optimization - selection of rendering into a single thread - a dramatic increase of FPS (roughly doubled). This work will take at least a month. Thus, the plan is simple - to release next week small patches, which will include a number 1, 2, 6, and possibly number 3. Then, in the circumstances - is likely to support SLI will release along with the number 7 sometime before the end of April - early May. __________________

got it running last night : with single plane around 40fps over the sea ;20 fps over country - over london single figures or stuuuttteeeerrrss res 1280*800 epilepsy off details medium but Forest off Buildings Low grass off set up joystick axis and Ill use the time until my new toys arrive to set up my controls They definatly need to optimise this thing. Buildings and forest are what are killing it. im spending more time on the 1c technical forums than flying the thing

Ok found this http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=19777 with tips for xp and following the tips on page 2 I can now get it to fly over blue water. Settings are custom - mostly medium with forest off no grass or shadows or road 1280*1024 I will do some more testing tonight.

thanks mate Ill be interested to see how you get on

Processor: Intel® Core™2 Duo CPU E6750 @ 2.66GHz (2 CPUs) Memory: 2046MB RAM Card name: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT windows XP Hi I am interested in how this works out as its a similar system to mine. I was going to rebuild this summer but I will be spending some money on replacing the suspension on the car, and wifey wont be too impressed if I go and spend loads on computer stuff as well I could buy a graphics card though and if it gives a half decent frame-rate that would do until later in the year. Crash It s unplayable with this , I tried the free flight in a single spit over the sea and it does not render the sea until you are just above it - when high up it looks like a load of green tiles. this is even at low settings. I tried a flight over london and it wwwaaasss aaaaa ssssllllliiiiidddddeeee sssshhhhoooowwwww with constant pop up of buildings. Ill try to get a screen shot to let you see what I mean

Processor: Intel® Core™2 Duo CPU E6750 @ 2.66GHz (2 CPUs) Memory: 2046MB RAM Card name: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT windows XP I have ordered another 2gb memory and Asus GTX 460 Direct CU TOP 768MB GDDR5 Dual DVI Mini HDMI Out PCI-E Graphics Card so I will see how it goes with this but seeing other posts even this might struggle, hopefully they will optimise the code

Then Im fooked mate , I dont want the hassle of an upgrade, and more important I cant afford the price,as I would have to get a clean full version of windows 7

yea XP mate - Iv caved in and ordered the new graphics card - early birthday prezzie

Got it loading but sticks around 80% when I try to launch any missions - unchecked grass and it works but its a slllliiiiidddddeeee ssshhhhoooowwww oh well looks like Ill need to upgrade to even play it

Installed, steam updated, sucessfully activated , clicked play and nothing no splash screen , nothing - bugger !!!!

convoy UPS XX13 arrived - installing now

mine is "shipped" hope the U-boats dont get it

Ill let you know how mine runs Colin - Im not optimistic from what Iv read but Iv a birthday in may so I might treat myself then to a small upgrade, graphics and memory to start with.

I would be very wary of using a russian version. I have done a bit of digging and found this http://www.sukhoi.ru/ FAQ on the game, installing and configuring STEAM Is there an option to buy a version of 1C in the West? Would it be possible to ask a friend to buy the CD in Russia and inform key, and I will introduce it in his client Steam? Answer: In Steam implemented a regional system of protection because in different regions of the boxed edition of Steam-games vary in price. Therefore, Games, purchased in Russia (boxed version) will not work outside the CIS. . To determine the location of the player's Steam verifies the IP-address from its database of IP compliance and countries. Attempts to circumvent this protection through proxies can lead to blocking your account.

crap !!!! I pre-ordered 2 days ago hopefully if the russians get a workaround it will find its way here too

Crashing is usually due to overheating or less likely a poor memory stick Depending on your motherboard you usually have sensors that monitor procesor temp and graphics card temp so check and see if there is a utility on your PC that you can run to see if the temp spikes prior to the crash. There is freeware programs on the net such as a program called motherboard monitor that does the same thing A good clean out will help - Pcs clog up a lot with dust - switch off, remove power cord, take off the side panel and use a hairdrier set to cold to blow the dust out then try again - BE CAREFULL - if you short out the components -by touching them when not earthed- it will be expensive although I have never done this in 10 years For your memory there is a program called memtest run this to check your memory is ok- if not then get some new memory crucial are good they check your pc and recommend the correct memory to add

It might as the mods have more visable tracers and hit effects. To improve your gunnery try using the p-51-d-20 with predictor sight , it will show you how much lead to use, set your convergence at 200- 250m and set up the sight at convergence. there is a guide on how to use the sight at mission4today http://mission4today.com/index.php?name=Knowledge_Base&cat=44 hope this helps

I see flatspinman has posted here http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/2601013236/m/6881067419 Hope he is ok and my thoughts are with everyone effected there

Steam must have improved , I had no end of trouble with it and half life. I can understand them wanting to use it as an antipiracy measure but I prefer a good old hard copy on dvd

IMHO The clip is better but not WOW THIS IS FANTASTIC great and the extra leads can be a hassle sometimes as they tangle up with your headphones leads but its less than the price of a tank of petrol
