Dust / Smoke

[Tavingon]

The main fps killer for me.. am I alone? When I land the dust is swirling like a tornado and the fps sink down to around 4fps, its a slide show

Ive turned clouds off.. a shame really cause they look great. I think these can all be optimised.. hopefully without turning them off altogether?

What's encouraging is that il2's modded smoke and effects used to be a real frame killer, but subsequent tweaks of the effects mods made it a real low hit on fps without any appreciable drop in eye candy, so it is do-able, by modders anyway, so lets hope MG can do some good optimising when they have settled on a graphics engine re-build.

This level of optimization...

Same here!

You're not alone - me too. My Spit caught fire and it brought the FPS down from around 40 to around 5. Looked nice though...

It has to be optimized

Same here, serious fps issues with any dust and clouds, not had the chance to test smoke recently.
