Smoke interrupted

[Vakarian]

IIRC ever since MT update, I've been experiencing broken up smoke trails / contrails. After my SQN mates told me that it works fine at their end on MT version, I've decided to completely reinstall DCS to remove all possible mod interference.

After reinstall, I'm still seeing these broken up smoke trails. Am I missing something? I've tried searching the forums for this issue, found nothing so I'm not completely sure what to do next.

This reminds me of an old report in this very forum. The problem was affecting an AMD GPU owner, just like you, and the solution was to set Tesselation level to the max (x16) in AMD options.

Huh, I'll give this a try. I usually stay away from messing with those options, but shouldn't be any harm in setting Tesselation. Will report with the results

[Vakarian]

Thanks a lot for putting me up on a right path. For some reason, the tesselation was already set to x16 (current max is x64).

However, because of that I now set the option to "Use application settings" and the problem is gone. Would have never thought about that.

Thanks for your precious feedback.

Same problem here, running a AMD 5800X3D and 5700XT. Tesselation set to x64 fixed it for me, use application settings doesn't work.
