Don't understand this post...they look great on my machine, in fact better than ever... Blue if you have the Mix right... true not very visible in bright light as it should be. Check the screens in full screen...

What is so hard to understand? In game, I don't see the flames like in your screenshot, period. So I asked if anyone else could still see them. But thanks for your reply, its obviously something my end, though I re-installed the game the other day and tried a flight at night and still nothing. though I agree they should be a touch brighter.

Anyway, thanks for the replies guys.

yo MegOhm's flames look about right, this ain't those funny cars or muscle car stunt shows or old school 3rd - 4th gen jet fighter afterburners.

click in the pix to expand to see the big size j/k

but you're right, on one patch you could see them during mid day . . . but I felt that seemed a little far fetched b/c I've seen piston (incl spits) start up mid day at the air shows and I barely catch the flames or didn't even see them at all . . .

maybe play with video card settings or in game settings? I remember alot of spec efx in portal 2 weren't showing up until I toyed with the settings.

Yes his flames look spot on, I just don't see them like that even at night. I don't see them at all, but I'll try the playing with the settings as you suggest.
Thanks for your advice

In my system flames still, like MegaOhn pictures, not "spectacular" like in firts versions, but seems OK.
In first Quick Mission, the blue flame is noticeabele at 9:00 (am) if you look the escape in oposite side of sun light.

HD7970 - 12.10 drivers.

Hey Sokol,

How do you like that 7970?

I almost pulled the trigger on one but when I compared the 5970 (my Card) with the 7970..they were not that far apart... Not sure I would get that much of a boost....Decided to wait for next gen....

I am running the 12.10 Drivers as well

Here is a daytime shot with Flames showing up pretty good

I could see them on engine startup.

Easy settings,no CEM.no temperature effects.

ATI 6850(1 GB). Old Cat. drivers.(early 2012 I believe)

Is a nice VGA for other games, but I dont 100% happy with then in CLoD.

I am previously "Nvida Boy", but change to ATI due "3 x 2 GB" * argument for CloD.

Unfortunatelly the "final version" of CloD is plagged with "Dashed Lines of Death"* in ATI HD 79XX VGAS:

For some reason is more noticeable online (in this mode the graphic engine is tune down?)...

Other low is, with ATI the horizont line is show like if draw with ruller, with Nvida's you see some fog between sea and sky:

* I know that is a game bug (now permanent), but with NVida's or ATI HD 69xx you dont see this.
