Like Stalingrad without the smoke

[Bungmiester]

 I like Stalingrad without the smoke as in the IL2 ground attack mission in this weeks update, looks alot better , also graphics seem clearer and getting a better FPS . any chance to have an option to turn the smoke on and off ???

 

Intel core Q9650 procc 3.ghz
GTX 560 Graphics card. 314.07 drivers
8 gig of RAM
Creative sb x-fi sound card

That might be a good option in the advanced graphics settings eventually. More or less smoke.

It would also be amazing if the smoke followed the particle physics model from the wake of the aircraft. The DN engine actually models this but showing that effect for millions of smoke particles... well not really possible. Yet...

It actually wouldn't be. That's like clouds on or off. It doesn't work for multiplayer and would ruin it because some people could put the graphics at nill and have an advantage - and there are a lot of people that would do that in a heart beat.

 

Smoke, clouds, anything that impacts visibility needs to be global so that it impacts all players evenly.

I would also be in for a Stalingrad map without smoke, and /or activate it via FMB by a mission builder as predefined object/script.

Maybe it will be possible with a "proper fmb" in 3 yrs.

I agree it'd be a nice option, but as the angry pussy says, it must be for all players, otherwise some people would exploit it.

I think it would be great if it was a server side setting..

At the moment the smoke turns on and off for me every five to ten seconds. So really, I have the best of both worlds.
