    Blitz impossible for me to play massive lag

    i7-6700K CPU @ 4.2GHz
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080
    16 gb ram
    windows 10
    ssd

    When i go to fly i get massive lag when i increase the throttle and the propellers cause so much lag that the game crashes.

    Re: Blitz impossible for me to play massive lag

    Hi and welcome to the forum.

    Your system specs indicate you should be able to run this sim smoothly at Very High video settings with no problems at a minimum resolution of 1920 x 1080p. I also noticed up in chat that you’re having some problems with the keymapping assignments, too.

    I’ll bring this thread to the attention of our ATAG “braintrust” . I’m sure our boffins can get your situation sorted out quickly.

    Cheers and standby.

    This has happened before to others.... Maybe the internal GPU is enabled and the game is picking it up instead of the NVidia card. The solution is to disable it on the BIOS.

    Ive spent from 10:00 to 15:00 trying to get this game to work.
    Wasted my day
    This is the only game i have a problem with, I dont know why it does not work and lag.

    Also you might try disconnecting your peripherals joystick rudder pedals and such and start the game up and just use the keyboard to see if it smooths out

    Hang in there mate. We've got plenty of very clever, helpful people around here that will undoubtedly offer assistance. Typically I've seen problems due to conflicts in hardware / software, but as everyone has different set ups & settings it's hard to state 1 fix for all. Just give it some time for our boffins to drop by, they're all round the world and not necessarily all sat at home on a computer.

    In the meantime try suggestions noted above without peripherals or changes in resolution, refresh rate, vsync ? full screen or pseudo and disable any other overlays like steam. Sorry but that's about the extent of my abilities - repeating other things I've read before.

    Re: Blitz impossible for me to play massive lag

    If you haven't already, check task manager when CloD is running, is there anything that seems to be running high memory usage at the same time, might help track down the cause. I know htis is a basic check but I was suprised to find having my web browser open seems to affect CloD much more than any other game I use.

    Also it might help to state what AV and firewall you use, in case someone knows of issues or quirks with CloD. I've not had any issue though personally with my antivirus or firewall.

    Perhaps not relevant either but just in case, what settings do you ahve in Nvidia, I also had to manually add CloD Blitz Launcher to the list in the first place.

    Re: Blitz impossible for me to play massive lag

    How much free space do you have on your hard drive? Which driver version you use for your graphics card? Did you setup your video options in-game (resolution as high as possible? full screen? anti-epilepsy filter off?)

    First thing to try and change if you haven't already in my opinion. My resolution was too high for it to run smoothly so I had to change it down just a bit; still looks great. And when I got it running ok handles more aircraft than any other sim I've tried.

    Good luck OP it is well worth it if you can find the cause of the performance issue.

    Re: Blitz impossible for me to play massive lag

    I just tried all the changes that everyone has said still same problem.
    I have no anti virus apart from windows basic.
    I have tried it on my ssd drive with 300gb of space left.
    I have tried on a normal hd with 900gb of free space
    Im using 16gb ram
    Im using latest windows 10 version the latest nvidia geforce and nvidia drivers.
    Played around with all the nvidia control panel settings.
    Unplugged my joystick same problem with just using keyboard and mouse.
    In game i have tried all the setting i play on everything on medium and use 1920 x 1080
    Toggles anti-epilepsy filter off and on.
    Ive tried all in game settings many times.
    It also lags on very low settings on window mode aswell on a low resolution and at the start of launching it says not responding for about 10 secs before loading

    I think maybe the game is not good for all the latest drivers or windows 10 or something.
    This is the only game i have problem with, i never get any lag on even the new high demand games.
    As soon as i fire the guns or add to much throttle it lags to much then stops working also same thing in single player.

    I have the same drivers and OS as you with no problem. Recommend you focus on internet connection/service. There is a lot of good advice in the ATAG forum for this problem.

    Also, add your hardware and internet setup to the address below. Also, include your location (City and state) and someone in your vicinity may have local suggestions.

    Try this also


    Click right on your "Launcher64.exe" and check the "Execute as administrator" box.

    Right click on the game folder and verify if you have "total control" of the folder as an admin.

    Do this to the Documents and Settings folder as well "Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover".

    You could try and Check \Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Steamworks Shared\_CommonRedist

    Open each and every subfolder there on by one, and run each of the executables in there ... DirectX, DotNet and VCredist ...
    (Some may report 'already installed' or 'newer version already installed' - no problem there.)

    It needs them, and maybe something was missed at installation ...?

    Re: Blitz impossible for me to play massive lag

    Maybe it is ok to rely on windows antivirus only, but I'd suggest running at least one reputable downloadable virus/malware scanner; (I'd recommend Avira). It's weird if it is only CloD that is affected but worth checking everything is clean.

    Also if you have something like GPUTweak use the monitor function to check usage and temps of things.

    Re: Blitz impossible for me to play massive lag

    Just to quickly check with one of the earlier questions Taylor, are you certain that there is no integrated GPU in your system?


    Don't worry mate, this is something totally unusual, I personally don't know anyone who has had this kind of issue, your system is fine, we just need to figure out where the conflict is

    "are you certain that there is no integrated GPU in your system?" Im not sure there is how would i know and how would i make sure the gpu gfx 1080 is working on CLOD?
    On device manager under display adaptors only NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 is displayed

    So it must be something to do with power usage as read dead 2 is low and CLOUD is on very high

    Re: Blitz impossible for me to play massive lag

    Could this be caused by some weird settings?
    Can you post the contents of your conf.ini file? You can find it in <My Documents>\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover folder
    (open it in Notepad, select all text, copy/paste it in here)

    Next, we maybe need to look at your Nvida control panel settings...

    (Edit: The power usage values look completely normal to me)

    Re: Blitz impossible for me to play massive lag

    I use everything on default now ive tried everything <My Documents>\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover folder
    ive deleted and and messed around with all the settings even on Nvida control panel settings nothing changes.

    Im seriously so disappointed in this i can play every single game with no problems its just this game.
    I played the game before blitz a long time ago my time now in steam is 6 hours - 6 hours just trying to get a game to work is ridiculous.

    So disappointed in this i think the code or something needs to be looked at.
    I play a variety of games old and new and this is the only game that does not work.
    I cant spend any more time on this 6 hours is far to long, ive only tried so many times as its my favourite type of game.

    My system https://filebin.net/vilt4t9cn208jyak...tml?t=4tphrj89

    Any devs that may need to look at the code or the game?
    especially when there is a update coming out and this does not even work.


    Uninstalled the game due to frustration.
    Thanks for everyone trying to help.
    Maybe someone needs to pass this on to the devs or the people who create the game.

    Re: Blitz impossible for me to play massive lag

    Too bad...

    It is frustrating to have to spend so much time to try and fix this.

    But, there are plenty of people around with PC's very similar to yours that run CloD perfectly fine, with good performance.
    IMO it's safe to say it is not the code of the game that needs looking at.
    For sure, it does not run properly on your PC.
    But changes in the code will not fix that...

    Re: Blitz impossible for me to play massive lag

    Hang around on the forum Taylor, devs will be interested in seeing this one fixed as we have not seen this before.
    You should be able to run it with your system.

    TFS if anyone is able to figure it out make sure to post it here and keep this thread going until we find it.

    Just going to go check my power usage as I am not sure that it should be on high power usage.
    I am running a basic silver 600w PSU

    Edit:20200725_091538.jpg
    I stand corrected as mine is on very high power usage, near 40% cpu, 60-70% memory. GPU says zero because I am tabbed out. Also according to Radeon my CPU is too low grade for this sim, but she runs beautifully.
    We'll figure it out

    Try this
    hit start then in the run box type command prompt.

    Then type dxdiag
    then post screenshots of each tab. That might help us dissect and hopefully figure out what the problem is. Hang in there it will be worth it in the end!

    It might be an idea to state which scenario or mission you are using, and make sure to always do tests on that same one each time to see if there is any improvement.

    I had to reinstall windows in the end which I regret doing. But looks like this is the only way to get it to work which is a shame. Anyway it's working okay now thanks for everyone trying to help. Wish I didn't have to reinstall windows.

    Glad to hear you are up and running.

    I am going to bet you didn't have the latest version of Net Framework... as mentioned in the list of typical issues on the 1C forums.

    Usually not necessary to a complete re-install of Windows... problems are usually specific.
