Negative G causes FPS to rise substantialy

[louisv]

Palker_4: ...i have noticed a strange phenomenon that when i push my stick to neg G so that my engine start loosing rpm my FPS will increase from around 25 to 60 and i was wondering how is this even possible.

Push my stick ...so that my engine starts loosing rpm...

Could you expand on that, usually if I push the stick, it does not have the effect of lowering the RPM...

I wonder if this has to do with the engine exhaust fire effects - In the first release, when player gets close to the bombers, the fps will drop immensely, apparently it was because of effect was on for all aircrafts.

In the later patch, the effect was only enabled for the player. I'm guessing that when the engine gets cut out, that effect is not rendered.

That could a reason i will try to turn of my engine in flight to see what will happen

Its definitely the exhaust effects i turned of my engine and FPS ad least doubled.
Is there any way to disable this effect without going for effects : Low?

BINGO! We may found one of flaws in specific effects that caused heavy FPS hit. We should report this to developer team and have them looking into improving this effects.


Chaoic out...

Good work fellas

I get the feeling you can't optimize this much, the light from each individual flame is simulated on the surface of the aircraft, this takes up resources. Turn it off if its causing you issues.
