voted no,
with some tweaking i managed to have about 20 to 50. depends on where i am looking. but near the front with heavy barrage it can drop down to 8-9 fps. i don't even need to actually see the frontline. looking into this direction is often enough to make this heavy drop. since lot of action is near the front it's bit annoying.
i have settings at 5,3,3,2,1
i have a nvidia gtx 260 oc
2.2ghz quad.
since higher settings with nvidia workshop works better for me, i have desktop res at 1680 1050, aa 16, af 16, vertical sync on,
thank you very much for taking care of that kind of things, winder.

I run the same resolution but no AA and 8 Aniso. My picture looks lovely, but considering my system ( see earlier post ) my Fps are 20 at airfields, which is not brilliant. for slider at 54441.
My mobo says I can use a software overclock, so i think i'll try that soon.
Native is 2.93. I'll see what 3.5 or thereabouts brings.
Don't knock down the eye candy though - It's like a film-lovely

Question if i may - I see a lot of chaps with good systems running high res also running 8 and so on AA. That's a lot of antialiasing which I would have thought would eat up tons of FPS . ?
Or is it, like res in CFS3 and OFF - the more the better it runs? Devs?
 
I voted Yes.

FPS between 50 and 60 when dogfighting at 10.000 feet with 6 Dr.I vs. 6 Camels. Does not go below 50. Only when starting on an airfield it drops down to 18 when looking around. But dogfighting 6 Dr.I vs. 6 Camel over the same airfield I have FPS no lower than 22 when near ground, mostly 30 to 50. When flying very low over a destroyed town at the front I get around 40 FPS.

Screen Resolution 1920x1200, 8xAA, 16xAF, Sliders 5-5-4-4-5-3, Regional Air Activity: Light, Plane Textures: Medium

System:
ASUS Rampage Formula Mainboard
Core2Duo E8400 3GHz@4,15GHz
Nvidia GeForce 9800GTX 512MB
4 GB RAM @1120MHz
X-Fi Gamer Soundcard

A yes vote on my end. Rig particulars are:

Asus P5N-E SLI
E6600 CPU clocked to 3.0GHz
2GB OCZ PC6400
BFG GTX260 OC
Samsung 21.5" LCD @ 1680 x 1050
XP Pro SP3

Slider set to 5-5-4-4-5-2
AA @ 4
AF @ 8

I'm hitting mid to high 20s when dogfighting close to the ground/airfields, otherwise, I have the frame rate hovering in the mid to high 40s range...very playable...and enjoyable beyond words! :woot:

Winder,
I voted yes. FPS low altitude over field with 10 plane furball is 30+. FPS at mid to high altitudes is 50+. Big difference maker seems to be setting Global Vertical sync to Force Off.
Sliders=3,4,3,3,3,1
AA=2x Resolution=1366x768x32 which is max for this laptop
Vista running on Intel Core 2 T5800, 3 GB DDR2 SDram
Nvidia GeForce 9300M GS DirectX 10 256 GDDR3 with Global Verticle Sync set to Force Off
320 GB hard drive
I could bump up some of my sliders from here but it runs good at this and looks great.
Thanks for all your hard work and dedication, Jim
 
I voted 'Yes' - I'm very happy with the performance I'm getting.

I've set max fps to 40 and in QC (haven't had time to try Campaign yet) with 9 aircraft in the fray it holds to that most of the time with just the odd dip and occasional hiccup. My specs are:

Vista Business 32 bit SP1, Intel Core 2 Duo 6600 2.4GHz, 4Gb RAM, Nvidia GeForce 8600GTS 256Mb.

Graphics settings are: Anisotropic filtering 4x, Antialiasing 2x, Antialiasing Transparency supersampling, Vertical Sync off.

Sliders are: 5,3,3,5,3

YES.

FPS 20-25 @ airfields, 100+ up high, 30-ish @ 1000ft furballs. Sliders 242221. On AMD FX-57 single-core @ 2.82GHz ( little O/C there ), 3gig DDR RAM ( O/C'ed a tiny, tiny bit), Nvidia 9800GTX PCIe - 512Mb - O/C'ed about 5%, 1280*1024/60Hz res. USB Saitek Evo Force. CFS3 - cd, Hdd defragged. In CFS3 config, write-only vertex shaders, index shaders disable, Vsync off, Terrain / Scenery lighting disabled ( that last one really bumped up the FPS ). Air activity - heavy. WinXP-SP3. 2AA, no AF. All FPS quoted when view max zoomed out; when zoomed in a couple of clicks ( default zoom ) - all FPs jumped up about 8FPS per zoom increment. Labels on/ off gave/took about 1.5FPS, VC gave about +12fps.
PS: not getting any gun-shudder on firing ( FF enabled ) - no big deal, just thought to mention, in case some1 goes ' oh yeah, that's because you've not done such-and-such' etc:whistle:.
Oh yeah, and it's the best game on the PC:amen:

CFS config in workshop says Geforce 6800 is configured. Can't get slider values. FPS is 30-40. Am very pleased. Scenery and weather is awsome. Didn't expect such good results with my rig.

Can those of us not using P3 as yet vote?

I ask, because - if we're being totally honest, I made the objective decision not to purchase P3, primarily due to my continued disappointment with graphics performance in OFF.

Not that you guys didn't do a heckuva job with this - you did. And it may well be limitations so deeply set in CFS3 that you can't change it.

But, believe you me, you guys find a way to get this mod/sim/game up to the standards a rig like mine *is definitely capable of*, you'll be my heroes, and I'd gladly pay what you're asking for it.

But, for now - for my money, the price-v-benefit "just ain't there".

So - can "non-paying" (but still potential) customers vote?

(BTW - please accept my gratitude for approaching this as you have. I had honestly all but given up on OFF and this forum, where all I could get so far were really a bunch of insults to my hardware, and my intelligence, about the graphics performance. This hardware does everything else I throw at it, no sweat, and I've been building all my own PC's for nearly 20 years now...but it's always been my sh*t ain't good enough or I'm not doing it right...interesting how now there's a thread asking about it, *and* others with opinions that seem very similar to mine).
 
Honestly, I can not see, why you don´t buy it. I guess it will work perfectly on your system.

Regards

Well, if that system cannot make OFF2 graphics to your satisfaction then something IS wrong somewhere.
As a matter of interest, what sim gives you good graphics then.?

And I get the feeling that you don't run OFF or CFS3 at your maximum resolution. FACT- the higherr the resolution, the faster the sim runs- strange but true.
And have you got the core optimizer thingy running ( default in SP3 )
And have you tried just one card - SLI is not always the best option.

Oh, and of course, you weren't running OFF2 on all sliders at 5 were you?
Worst mistake you could make.

I had an AMD 4000 processor, and 7800GTX card and it ran OFF2 in all its glory.

As I say, the problem is your end somewhere. Sincerely hope you sort it.
 
I am very pleased with the FPS in P3

I have Asus P5N-E SLI, 2gig DDR2 800mhz, Nvidia 8800GT, Intel 6600 Duocore on XP

Getting a reasonably steady 25- 30 fps

4,5,4,4,2 (which suits me fine)

Got a pretty naff monitor though..best res of 1280 x 1024..so, that is getting changed soon

I think I am correct in saying that XP 32 can only make use of 3 gig of Ram?

depends on your system, mine is using 3,5gb. I think it can adress 4gb in total. System ram and v-ram in total for your graphics.

That's nearly true as said above. Mine makes use of 3,3 GB RAM. But unfortunately you can only choose between 2 or 4 GByte so in my case 0.7 GByte are wasted with a 32-Bit OS. And I am not ready to go and buy Vista 64. I will never be :d
