Hi Gents,

since I got my new GPU (Radeon RX 570), I'm having some trouble with frame rates in game. Even with no signifcant objects around fps rate will not rise above 30 ~ 40 and drop fast to lower levels once more objects and effects come into sight. On the other hand BoX runs smooth as silk on 60 fps (set as limit in game).

Mike already gave me the tip to lower a value called "transparency anti-aliasing" in the software for the GPU (at least that's what it is apparently called in the Nvidia software). Unfortunately I never had an AMD card before, therefore I do not know where to find the appropriate setting in their software. My current Graphics settings can be seen here:

Can an AMD card owner (or anyone else familiar with that software) give me a few directions how I have to modify my settings in order to get IL-2 back to a performance level one would expect from a 8 GB card?

I'm not an AMD owner but reading through this page...
https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/faq/dh2-012
...which I got to when searching for similar pictures like your screenshot, I see a tad clearer now at least.

Starting at the beginning of that page, I'd probably recommend a "Custom" profile with Anti-Lag on, Chill off, Boost off, Image Sharpening off, Enhanced Sync at your own discretion (dunno which one works best there).
Then in the screen you've shown, the transparent anti aliasing I've been talking about would actually be activated by setting the Anti-Aliasing Method to "Adaptive Multisampling" and unfortunately AMD doesn't seem to provide different levels of AA for general edges over transparent edges (booh AMD in that case!).
Anisotropic Filtering Level should be set to 16.
Texture Filtering Quality should be "High".
Surface Format Optimization... try to enable this, will probably not make much of a difference though.
Tessellation Mode? Someone enlighten me please. No idea.
OpenGL Triple Buffering should be disabled if you are using a FreeSync monitor and enabled otherwise.

Scroll down further on the page linked above and you will see how to setup per-game profiles in the "Gaming" menu.
Highly recommended.

alright, it looks much better now. Many thanks

I've run a few tests locally and a short one online so far, and frame rates finally reach 60 again, dropping to 30 ~ 40 in very populated areas. I'll see how it turns out on sunday, when we'll fly one of the bigger prangs again.

Hi Guys,

I am trying to help out a flying mate who has an AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT and an i7 processor.
I am not too technical and to make matters trickier I have an NVidia card myself.

We noticed a problem when loading a Philippines map mission for online play.
His load froze at 90% and we traced it ( by pprocess of elimination ) to the Beta mod for Aircrew Rescue.
This did not affect anyone else in the group , however , and I have memories regarding the Philippines map having some load
issues when first released.
He is not currently getting perfect game settings , so I suspect he has not set up his video settings correctly.

I will direct him to Storebror's post above and the link to AMD Radeon setup as well.

If anyone out there with a similar PC rig without issues could send me a trial config.ini setup , it would be much
appreciated.

Should he be able to get Perfect Game settings with this gear ?

Thanks , Kopfdorfer

Hola Gente,tengo el mismo problema y no sé que hacer puesto que probé muchas veces y no puedo activar el modo perfect.Tengo una AMD radeon RX 5500 XT.
Ayuda por favor!!
Gracias.
