Close down the seven porn sites running in the backgroud and tell us if things improve.

I logged after getting 4-6 fps in a dogfight; holy collision batman!  All weekend it was playable (16-20 fps) but last night - maybe it is the A11 area itself that does it

Think it has to do with a number of things. The terrain in that particular vicinity is fairly busy with a ton of fields and depos etc. Tack on the almost unending clouds and you end up with a pretty good hit to your FR. Worse yet, throw in all the flak bursts and a few planes and there you are--perfect recipe for graphical overload! I know my FR tanks quite a bit in this terrain. Its neat lookin but at its damned near unplayable in certain areas--Stalingrad is one of em IMO.

Flew for a while last night after the MA farted. Had the same problem. Don't think its you. I'm running a similar system with a 1.2 AMD.

It realy does depend on where you are on the map, I can play on it no problem and average 40 to 50 fps, but others do not fair so well. It is a great looking terain though great atmosphere.

I get my normal 70+ fps running everything on @ 1024*768*32bit, this map doesn't change my fps much at all. btw, I don't have ground clutter on as GC eats 50 odd fps near the ground.
