    Gone back to 4.2's....

    Why o Why?? I hear you say??


    well.... they're BEAUTIFUL in IL", lovely framerates, tweaked goodness ahoy etc etc.. BUT I went to go and have a bit of light relief cos VEF is b0rked and decided to fire up Counter-Strike for a bit... o m g... I was shocked.. 18 fps MAX stood still in a corner down to 1fps after hurling a smoke grenade.. not on, that is, espesh on a 9800pro.... so I uninstall the very good as it were 4.7 omegas I had on.. and slap the 4.2's back in... fire up CS - good as gold. and I KNOW they work well enough in IL2...

    So there ya have it folks... the good thing is tho - the omega uninstall left the "Radlinker" in there.. so I've done my first OC... only a little one tho cos I'm scared of breaking it...

    Oh well, you can't win them all! My omega 4.7's are fine. Who plays counter strike now anyway?
    Not around too often!

    It is, it was acceptable under the 4.2's and tbh theres no improvement under the 4.7's if anything I'd say there worse under IL2 and CS compaired to the 4.2's....
