Is there any chance that 'realistic' looking smoke can be added in a future update?

Hi chaps, the discussion isn't really about how overdone the effects are, as these are created by(some highly talented) modders.

What I hope is that TD will consider revising these effects so that they are acceptable to users, i.e, not frame-rate killers, but that they enhance the current 2D striped sprite of smoke and 'bubble' of flame.

The above examples really don't cripple frame-rates as they are just re-adjusted effects files, but if TD could go through a quality control version to guarantee that there is a bare minimum of FPS reduction, surely the enhancements far out way a 2-3 FPS that it would make?

Currently we are at the point where PC's have advanced so much since this came out that it should now be possible to enhance the 2D sprite smoke to make it look more authentic, as shown in the videos above (and the one I posted was shot on his mobile, but VPMedia's are examples that could be referenced from).

I just hope that TD will consider this advancement in the visual effects as, if you consider what can be done in the videos shown above already, with a TD quality control, surely smooth FPS friendly fire and effects are more than possible now?

Opinions very much welcome on the examples shown, but also on the request for realistic looking smoke and fire effects that are evidently more than possible?

Cheers, MP
