pierremgi 4737 Posted March 5, 2019 Simple test: In vanilla Arma, place an ammo bearer at salt lake on Altis (not too much objects, here). In Editor, change its loadout for a bunch of smoke grenades. Preview and throw grenades. Before throwing, I got something like 90 FPS Throwing 2 grenades, not too far, FPS drop to 70, Continue throwing up to 6 grenades, FPS drop to 40 Walking inside the smoke, FPS fall down to 10 !!

lex__1 422 Posted March 5, 2019 There are more places with the fall of FPS. Two videos with a problem effect, where there is a ~50% drop in FPS. The fall of the FPS on the effect of a machine gun shot and explosive bullets. The fall of the FPS from the sight of the surface of the water through the sight of any vehicle (on which there are optical sights). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pierremgi 4737 Posted March 5, 2019 So, FPS dramatically drop... and as far as there is no great mission in solo VR map, but most of the time MP holy mess, there is something to be done. First of all, are there some settings to improve (blur, AO, PPAA?) I failed to obtain some improvements, blind testing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lexx 1331 Posted March 5, 2019 I thought it's really just the amount of particles being spawned. Noticed the same with one of my custom smoke particles. Had to reduce the amount drastically to keep the fps in ~good~ range. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
