il2 Menu=Rasputitsa Menu

[TempestV]

I feel like I'm pushing my menu arrow through mud.

This has been a complaint for some time on this forum - With people with high end and low end machines.

I have a low end machine but am able to play il2 with low settings. I have bought collectors planes and 2 of the modules and the Me-109 campaign and enjoy them.

I'm even able to play CLOD with the latest TEAM Fusion BETA MOD Patch and Mius Front with my machine.

Though both interface are essentially 2-d images (hint -hint )

 

But the Menu interface to iL2sturmovik I hate with the intensity of a million suns.

I have to go through  Stations of the Cross to get to the sim.

I tried all kinds of settings did all kinds of searches and it's always the same.

I can play with low setting but it's like walking through a bog maneuvering the interface.

 

The Rise of Flight menu I have no problems-granted RoF is years older. But still -it makes no sense-the menu interface is slower then the game!

Can this be put on a  to-do list for the next patch to fix?

 

Please?

 

FWIW

I'm running Win7 Pro 64 bit

NVIDIA Geoforce GT610

HP P6-2120T 4 GB of installed memory.

 

Yeah it's old but it works for now-except with the menu.

TIA

I had a low FPS menu last couple of patches. The recent ones remedied that. On the opposite end of the spectrum CLoD runs with super stuttering for me, but BoS runs flawlessly at 60 fps locked. I read that CLoD runs better with an FPS limiter but I've never bothered.

Kinda Sorta FIXED. Got there in a round-about way.

 

I limited my IL2 FPS to 30 using the EVGA Precision X utility. So the cursor moves a whole lot better. Still drags a bit but I can live with it. The weird part is the rotating view of the aircraft in the hanger still turns slow as before. Like the menu interface is a separate 'shell' from the hanger graphic. Didn't notice any difference in the small amount of gameplay in FPS. Time will tell.

Now how did I get to this partial solution?

Somebody wrote you can turn off the FPS limiter in IL2 CLOD and you would in increase you FPS.

Well that's fine but I couldn't find an FPS LIMITER in the CLOD interface-nor in the CONFG file. But someone in a 1C forum (GOOGLE is your friend) mentioned using EVGA Precision X utility to configure FPS. So I tried it. Spent a limited amount of time in CLOD to see if leaving the FPS Limiter on or off on affects FPS. Didn't notice anything-yet

 

Only thing for certain EVGA Precision X utility did help in my IL2 Menu. Weird.
