Normally 60, clouds had me 40's but playable.

The storm clouds yesterday (June 23), sent my frame rate to 5. If this is to continue, flying is not going to be fun anymore. I spent over five hundred dollars to update just to be able to play AH III and that with almost all settings cut off. The scenery is beautiful, but if you can't fly, what good is it.My frame rate was not so bad during that fight last night,even in the clouds it was not dipping below 55 from the 70 I have it locked to.However many people were complaining it was terrible (usually after they were shot down
) even though I have a beast of a computer I still turn off all those post lighting effects as a personal preference and disable reflections so as to never dip below 70 no matter what is on screen.Bump mapping is the biggest killer in my opinion so I turn that slider to none.

About 24 hours ago that particular cloud was south of a58 near the knight aaa-factory.

I have killed the shadows,reflections, all clutter, post lighting, and bump map to 1rst slider instance.Put bump mapping slider to none, it's s killer even on my system at low alt<S>

Last night and late this morning were my first forays into this cloud system of HTC's with my not-so-fast PC. (I'll get a hold of something better when I'm not financially enslaved to the dentist office :D ) Pretty, but I had to slide my graphics down a fair bit to attempt to minimize the "lurching" along I seemed to observe, and get my frames back up into a manageable range. Also observed a whole slew of "Texture Creation Error"(s) in the text buffer, even while sitting in the tower after my sortie.

That video card is going to have texture resource issues. 1GB video cards can run out of memory if you set the video graphic options higher. Try disabling shadows to gain back a lot of video memory.

Yeah... I wondered about that. My brother (Flayed1) originally built me a beefy machine for its time for AH2 with this card, and I ran it for a great many years. Thank you, sir.

Can't seem to attach DxDiag.

The dark gray "overcast" clouds reduce my frame rate from 180ish to 25ish. The long narrow cloud "banks" don't have such a drastic effect.
Can't seem to attach DxDiag.
I saved it as a .txt file, then just copied/pasted the relevant info here.

Try switching to DX9 instead of DX11. That fixed the micro stutters for me

Might consider adding some system information to your signature. Just a thought.
The reason I bring it up is I have a really low end video card in my work computer (AMD/ATI 4870) and I am not seeing the stutters in DX9 associated with any clouds, but then again, I have most of the advanced graphics disabled.
