new prop visual effect = headache + ugly (and epilepsy trigger issue ?)

[zapatista]

this long promised patch just doesnt cut it on my poor little i5 @ 3.6 (dual core) system (yes i have somewhat higher frame rates at +/- 35 now, but still the sim isnt perfectly fluid, and the scenery colours and textures look somewhat bland (even compared to the razor sharp but low resolution il-1946 sim)

but this the new prop spin visual effect is a headache (literally).

what do you folks think ? i am partic interested in opinions from those that have been in smaller prop planes, and hence know what it should look like in real life.

visually the new current prop visual effect has a strobe like lighting effect which is very unpleasant to look at, and significantly distracts from how clearly you should be able to look at objects directly in front of you (if anything in a modern game will pose an epilepsy danger for the few whom are prone to it, this one surely will). imho also looks like nothing that i have seen in real life in small prop planes.

from my experience in small prop planes in real life, at high rpm the prop spin should just cause a small mild amount of blurring, and barely be visible. instead right now we have this massive strobe like flashing thing in front of us which blurs significantly what you can see, and makes it a very significant distraction. to me it is unpleasant, ugly and visually irritating to look at

in the later versions of the previous il2 series, and in the current DCS p51 for ex, this prop spin visual effect was pretty good, mildly visible but not distracting or unpleasant. imo if ever there was going to be an epilepsy trigger concern in those that are prone to it, this current visual effect would be a perfect candidate

specs: intel i5 @ 3.6 (dual core), 8 gb 1600 ram, ati 5770 (1 gb), win7 64 bit

i also had high hopes this new patch (with the complete gfx engine rewrite) would bring back some of the scenery visual beauty that was present when this sim was first released last year (albeit a stuttering beauty with constant microfreezes for me, making it unplayable), sadly this is not the case so far.

what do you folks think about this new prop spin visual effect ?
