davek1979 Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 Ok guys the deal is like this: 1, playing this at work - no envy please for reasons that follow... :-) 2, the machine is a bloody 2004 model that CAN'T be upgraded for workflow reasons, that gives me 2 XEON dual cores @2.8GHz, 2GB RAM and Quadro FX500 - works great at 1024x768 3, game works fine up until the moment I hit some clouds and similar volumetric stuff, then the FPS drops to an abyss and I can go shopping in between the frames... Q: Is there a way to get rid of all annoying (at least on this machine) volumetrics ? ...well someone has to move the mud!!!
CHola Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Yes. You need to replace all clouds textures with empty pictures and that should work. Not sure, but I think I saw someone packed this in a MOD file. It should be somewhere around here. Cheers, CHola
Brit_Radar_Dude Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 You could open the mission in the Mission Editor and set the weather to a cloudless day. In the early days, lots of folks with so-so machines had to do this with campaigns / missions authored by the Community. The folks who make missions often have top of the range machines and so put in weather and lots of AI aircraft/helo's/tanks/ships that kill FPS. Lost count of the number of times I had to edit down a mission so it is playable on my rig. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Sorry Death, you lose! It was Professor Plum....
