Where did you read this, HiJack ? That would be awesome.

Thank you.

Okay, ZoRPA, thank you.

I think, different type of clouds are important as well, for a flight sim, not only the ground textures, buildings, etc.

What do you mean, Jamison ?

That's not a mod, there are just some printscreens from some other combat flight sim ( broken saturated cumulus clouds )

This is exactly what i mean, when i have these clouds enabled my FPS hit is nowhere near as severe, something really disagrees with nV cards and the way these clouds are rendered.

Let's hope, ED will release in the near future some better clouds, with different types.

Okay, this isn't a weather simulator, but it would be nice to have the choice, for the type of clouds :)

Some examples, I've also enabled SMAA via ReShade to remove any aliasing that occurs with the clouds downsampling effect on objects/terrain, it looks so much cleaner with no real FPS change (so glad i have a decent AMD graphics card to handle it :))

Hi All

Tried this last night with my 980 TI and yep over half's frame rates :(

I7 4790K @ 4.8ghz with asus Strix 980TI and 16 GB of RAM

 

Normally 100 +fps in the sky with these clouds as low as high 30's. But they look soo nice :(

Why is this happent only with the nVidia GPU's ?

Will they ( can they ) fix this, in the near future ??

Considering that the clouds are not the default ones yet, let them work on it :)

 

Precisely, we can't complain about something that shouldn't even be used yet, for all we know ED could be making completely different types of cloud models and these are just leftovers in the code that we can just play around with :)

Looks great Mustang! Still seeing some luminous outlines showing through though. Is that the same for you?

 

Yeah but they don't seem to be as prevalent as they were before, it's just something we have to live with if we use these clouds.
