Appreciation!!

Would like to post to the 777 Studio development team a thank you for the early access opportunity. This is very much appreciated!

 

Even though I had problems which caused me to only have the opportunity to experiment with the GUI menus, I'm still good with how this project is going. I have seen plenty of the videos posted by others to satisfy myself that this will be a very remarkable project in this genre, which by the way is the only computer type of game I take the time to mess with. Actually, As this project is shaping up, and I do hope so, I'm not really considering IL-2 Sturmovik BOS as a game anyway, but more of a factual historic events and equipment/weapons systems simulation in the works.

I suspect the problems I have are caused by my current machine being way too far below minimum recommended specs. If you have any curiosity or suggestions for this issue, here is my bug post. My intentions are to hold off on building a new machine until after the Oculas Rift consumer version is available, then build as fast of an ultimate machine as possible for the purpose of running IL-2 Sturmovik with the Oculas Rift (& DCS titles also). If the replacement of my current video card only on my current machine would allow me access to the flight part of the simulation, I'd be open to that for now. Should any knowledgeable individual would want to take look at my DxDiag & Error file, let me know please.

 

While I realize some are looking for an easy balanced flight sim game, in which one could be an ace pilot in less than an hour or two on “hard setting”, and there is a legitimate market for such, and there are some good products for this a market. But, I'm very please that 777 Studios is taken the up the challenge to build an factual, realistic, (as much as possible) historic events and aircraft simulation for the World War 2 era, in which there is not any real product on the market.

 

Thanks 777 Studios!!

Video card is below minimum. Need at least a GTX260 w/1024MB. CPU is below minimum, too - Quad core currently minimum recommended.

 

I wouldn't wait for a consumer OR, that could be a while.

what resolution is the consumer oculus?

 

i don't think it's a problem to run this game 120fps 1920x1080 with a computer built right now

Consumer OR is about a year away! You're going to suffer yourself to play BoS on a sub-minimal rig from spring to at least october? :)

I blelive this error message is a result of my current video card.

If I were repace my current video card with this one, EVGA - GeForce GT 610 Graphic Card - 810 MHz Core - 2 GB DDR3 SDRAM - PCI Express 2.0 x16,

will IL-2 run on my machine, or will a new video card have to be a GTX?

If anyone could answer it would be much appriciated.

Don't waste your money. That's a budget card and not worth it, it's not even an upgrade - it's actually a downgrade.

 

You also have a Duo core processor, and the current recommended minimum is quad core. You might be able to get away with a duo core, but if you are penny pinching right now to upgrade for this game I would highly recommend waiting until it's further along developmentally - like early Spring - in order to save and make the upgrade worth it. You could get away with a used Core2Quad, a used mobo to support that CPU, a used radeon 5850, and reuse most of your parts you currently have BUT you will be better off waiting if you can't commit to a CPU/mobo/memory/GPU upgrade.

 

I had the E6750 years ago, 2007 I think. It's time to upgrade that puppy and get a quad core. I understand you may not be able to afford to purchase the latest - but even a used 1st gen quad core from Intel is exponentially better. I know, I had an i7 870 after the E6750 and the i7 870 blew the E6750 away with Rise of Flight.

 Plus one.     Good idea to allow early access and it's turning out to be a success.  It will probably set a precedent.

Thanks FuriousMeow!

I'm planning on building a new computer, but later in the next year. So, just for now, I'm only looking for something inexpensive and fast to put in that would allow me to see the progress of IL-2, as I'm really not with a lot of extra free time currently. So, if it would do that, I'd be happy.

Course I'm open to suggestions!
