is dynamic weather really dynamic?

[fitness88]

I was wondering if dynamic weather really is dynamic or is it just separate weather patterns in different areas that don't change over the course of the mission?

 

Thank you.

Dynamic is dynamic from memory. I'm pretty sure I've experienced weather changes in the same area. I'm sure someone else can give you a more informative reply soon.

 

- I tended to avoid it as it seemed to lower my frame rate in previoua versions. Haven't tried it in 1.5 or later.

Yes it's definitely dynamic. There are a few good old threads that try and explain it, but most of them are a bit technical for me so I just use trial and error.

if you play hambonez on the DoW server you will see the weather go from cloudy to raining to clear at sochi for blue throughout the course of the mission ... very cool.

 

I just wish there were more templates a person could play with - even better.... i wish I could click and drag the HI LO fronts around within the ME.

I read that EDGE in 1.5 helps avoid the big frame loss with Dynamic weather. Also I think there is a big loss in frame rate whenever your flying in stormy weather with rain or snow be it dynamic or standard weather.

I'll check it out and make note of it.
