bojote Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 Hi, I've been tweaking and optimizing my lomac instalation the last couple of days. I was wondering if there is a 'must-have' list of mods that greatly enhance gameplay, either because they give you a performance boost or because they make the simulation even more immersive. So far, I've found the following mods for FC to be 'must-haves' at least for me. is there any other one I'm missing? - Water FPS Enhancement V2 by D-Scythe - Overcast Cloud Mod v.2 by Mitch Janssen - Zzzspace sound pack V1 for FC1.1 Does anybody have experience with this one? - Lock On 1.1 FPS Tweak v1.03
Shaman Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 I prefer default sounds over any sound pack. For me, Greb's explosion pack is a must have. 51PVO Founding member (DEC2007-) 100KIAP Founding member (DEC2018-) :: Shaman aka [100☭] Shamansky tail# 44 or 444 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 100KIAP Regiment Early Warning & Control officer
Guest ThomasDWeiss Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 Does anybody have experience with this one? - Lock On 1.1 FPS Tweak v1.03 I do, it was a good tweak, and it improved stutter - but there were some aspects that left a bit to be desired. A new version v2 was posted a few days ago Tweak v2 for FC web page this tweak is better. better FPS less stutter and overall, I was more happy with it. Of course, I am a bit suspect as far as judging this Author's work.
SIX oclock Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 Nice initiative Bojote, this thread can be very handy for lockon novices (like me). It would be nice if people (when possible) mention the link to the addons... Thank you!

bojote Posted October 13, 2005 Author Posted October 13, 2005 Hi Thomas, Very nice FPS improvement... However, I would like to test it with trees, is there any way to enable trees? the are currently disabled.

VanillaChris Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Wow this works amazing. Good work! Now i got to get used to a smooth Lomac :icon_jook S! Eagle
bojote Posted October 13, 2005 Author Posted October 13, 2005 Hi! There is a way to do it - http://forum.lockon.ru/showthread.php?t=8373&highlight=adding+trees THomas, what I meant is that when using your FPS Fix all trees dissapear, you added or changed somehting in: MEinit.xml MECustom.xml Because if I replace those files with the stock ones I get back my trees. I just want to know what you changed to compare performance with and without trees.
VanillaChris Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 I guess not, cause i had trees while testing the mod at the 169th server. Eagle

Haegar Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 I get other glitches with the FPS-Tweak. Roads and railways are vanishing in a strange manner. Not all of them and not neccessary in the distance. Sometimes they disappear directly below my plane while in the far distance they are still visible. I am not able to detect a pattern, they come an go as they want. Not good for A-10 useres like me - we need this landmarks :) P.S.: Trees are visible...
Brit_Radar_Dude Posted October 14, 2005 Posted October 14, 2005 Bojote - you need scenes set to HIGH to see the forests, but of course so many trees will hit your FPS. If you have scenes set to MEDIUM you only see a few trees on the edge of fields which does not hit FPS so much. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Sorry Death, you lose! It was Professor Plum....
