FPS on the ground-Noticed something

[HorrorRoach]

Not sure if someone has brought this up before, but it's worth mentioning.

Once in a while, I turn on a G.50 and go have a smoke while it warms up. When i was walking back to my PC, i noticed, from a sharp angle, that NEARLY invisible exhaust smoke is expelled from both sides of the engine. I can only see it if I look at my monitor from a very sharp angle. So, I turned my effects quality from high to low and my ground FPS improved and reduced that strange choppiness (when your FPS is 40, but it feels like its like 25 or something). Maybe that's why FPS improves when you take off, the exhaust smoke isn't being rendered in front of the player view anymore?

Honestly, whenever I dogfight, I never see fire or much smoke when shooting a place down. So, I don't really miss the high effects setting.

I think they should remove the smoke, it's pointless if it's 98% invisible. They can still keep the smoke you see when you cut throttle completely, like in the Ju87.
