We just added a new full-time coder on to the team to assist on the CTD's some are experiencing and the FPS slowdown. The good news here is Wolfram is reproducing very slow performance on one of his systems. Any time a bug or problem happens on a coder's machine is a good thing in terms of finding the issue.
On a good note, our mid-ranged machine over here (PIV2.4, GF6600) is getting between 17-20fps when flying though bombers with all options on full. So it seems we may have some sort of driver issue happening. There are times when new video drivers cause issues with exising games and we are looking into everything at this point.
This is the toughest work of game development (making a game run well on the wide assortment of hardware out there) but be assured this is the highest priority for us and we will be here doing everything we can to get this issue resolved as quickly as possible and get the fix up.
Thank you,
Scott.

Scott as a note i am experiencing slow down BUT not as much as others say they are. Mine is fully playable and i am using some older drivers for my card due to the issues that arise with il-2 etc when using new drivers.
mine are old 71.25 these seem to work ok the odd CTD in bob2 and no transparancy issues in il-2, But some issues if using newer games such as Battlefield2 and dynamic lighting and other 'new' graphics features that the new drivers are better able to support.

Well done Shockwave, its good to hear you're on the case.
As a benchmark for the rest of us could you post up some system specs of the devs with the resultant performance they get with different setup options?
I'm sure my system should be able to cope with maxed settings, but it just ain't happening.
Cheers,
WB.

Azi, please post your specs.
We will not gloss over the problems, we will work to fix them. Software dev is very difficult, the endless combinations of hardware are a real issue. Many of us spent years on Rowan's original BoB and I think our dedication is apparent to the sim community. Please bear with us, it is the same in this case.

I've no doubt you'll get there, i too have been with BOB since the Rowan release when it was a really buggy so and so!JamesB wrote:Azi, please post your specs.
