Looks like this and drives me mad...



At low rpm I can even see the individual prop plades flickering in, and at high RPM it looks like Pearl Harbor. It seems most people get it better with an almost invisible disc unless at real low RPM (and that is how it was for me BEFORE the last 14588 patch).

IMO the prop should be invisible accept on idle, and very little of it then. The only time I really want to see it is when turning the engine off...

So, for me CoD has been running great the last 3-4 patches, exellent FPS and all. This new prop effect just makes it unplayable to me. Only way to get rid of it is the dreaded "anti epilepsy" setting.

And yes, I run with vsync and only in game and not in the Nvidia driver. Have also tried triple buffering in the Nvidia control panel but no luck. The only thing that differs me from many I guess is that I run on 120hz... And with really high fps. Often above 70 fps. Could this be why I see this Hollywood effect no one else has talked about?

Please make an ini setting to use the old prop effect so I don't need to run anti epilepsy to get rid of this bug/feature.

And no, it does not look exactly this way IRL as the Youtube conversion has changed the oscillations a bit - but it's just as visible in game...
The only thing that I can say is 'you can't please everyone'.

I'm happy with this effect, it works for me as immersive, and yes I know it's not reality. Prop is a matter of personal choice and always has been in every sim, damed if you do, damed if you dont. I'm happy to move on to some other more pressing inaccuracies that don't require a personal persective argument for right and wrong.

Just to find a perfect real-life example in regards to visibility realism.

If you made a computer game showing a classroom with 3 CRT monitors amd the ingame footage showed perfect screens, would you complain about the screens not flickering?



The human eye is the standard if you want to have your gametitle labeled "Simulator", just like they said the tracers were the most accurate rendering ever because they used a real "shutterspeed" effect similar to that of a humans eye to re-create length. Why not do the same for the props?

PS, pritorities gentlemen.

Lets see how you react to the Spit or 109 that flies beyond it's real life performance spec. I'm happy to accept a simple and inconsiquential hollywood 2D prop FX in preferance to the hollywood '''PERFORMANCE FM''' of a Spit or 109 in game. One effcts the end result of an hours battle and years of study, the other is?? Well, more self indulgence

Would you choose something different in priority?? Would you prefer a personal choice of 2D to a reality in FM performance??

Sorry, Luther is in charge now and 'reality' is surly 'TANGIBLE' not just the visable as in the past IL2?

So, what ever the 2d prop FX is defined as is incosiquental to the outcome of the game, the 'end result' is more important to me personally.

Hollywood FX or blur prop, just choose so we can free up time to the more game impacting aspects.
