Dahel 17 Posted June 3, 2018 Hi, watched some streams, lad got into smoke cloud after some explosion or extinguisher explosion and hes FPS goes to ground kind 12FPS. 1. issue to a game performance it is FOG + smoke effects. I've tested several games HEAVILY-med-low graphics with drawing FOG at different distances. tests results: FOG draw at FAR distances degradation fps -5 to -25 units (should be choose to off fogs) another issue is smokes, should be choose quality to very low, but for competition smokes wee need to stay, those clouds should be changed from sml draw pixels to huge Gray squares so GPU CPU not loaded much but still cannot see what behind of it.

ElectroStingz 53 Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) Hello, The smoke performance related issues have been known for many years, the issue is due to the game engine and phyics processing which is all limited by design to a single thread (CPU based). It is also a direct result of the old engine and use of DX9 coding. This will hopefully improve slightly with the engine upgrade to UE3.5 but the true gains will be had in the UE4 engine. GPU accelerated physics processing / particle effects needs to be added to the game Edited June 3, 2018 by ElectroStingz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dahel 17 Posted July 4, 2018 (edited) up again, mainly it is about what you see FOG around town, not car smokes or HE smokes. Edited July 4, 2018 by Dahel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
