Is there any way of improving the clouds for me they are not as good as the orignal IL2 

 

I have a GTX 1060 3GB card, Windows 7 64BIT

 

Here are some of my settings in the game

1 Dynamic Res Factor -full

2 Cloud Quality -High

3 Antilasing -4

4 Use 4K -ticked

5 Sharpen -ticked

6 HDR - ticked

7 SSAO - ticked

8 Vsync - ticked

 

I have NO stuttering game runs fine here's a pic of my clouds in BSG and IL2

I do miss the old clouds, before they added multiple layers. They were thicker and puffier. I guess they just weren't compatible with the extended terrain distances.

Thanks guys for the info install smoother clouds mod and they look a little better for now, it seems iL2 had better clouds but BOS has better terrain and more.

Don’t forget, il2-1946 was out for a while and modded like crazy to make it look nicer...    

i find the clouds we have are nice in detail and look more realistic to me... but they have flaw with aliasing issues with aircraft vanishing and that “rolling” effcect.

 

I’m sad sad sad...

BoX, for me, has the best in game clouds I've seen in a flightsim.

 

but, I have found I needed a couple of "mods" to make them great.

 

rarely see or notice any rotation now.

As said before Il2:1946 is modded like crazy.

I think I tried out all available cloud mods. Default fluffy cotton balls never appealed to me.

Gotta say I love the double cloud layers in IL2 GB.

 

I dug up some screenies of my old days cloud mod for 1946.

To be completely honest, I dig the RoF clouds more (I think I may have a cloud mod though...) but I do think there is a reason the clouds are the way they are in IL*2 GB. Hopefully in the future we can find some way to make pretty clouds that can cover large view distance without impacting performance as much.

That’s the thing, they look fantastic, it’s just about functionality at the moment.. aircraft aliasing and disappearing infront of close clouds and behind clouds in distance when they are actually infront!
