Hi all,
The one thing that really bugs me is when blowing stuff up, after a while the ensuing explosion (running GWX 2.0) grinds my pc to a deathly 3 fps. Is there any way of editing this or is there an alternative file for download?

Many Thanks,

Herr Trigger.

I have done an alternate sound FX pack for GWX2 if you want to give it a go just see my signature, might help.:yep:

Also, try turning your particle density down, and don't use enhanced damage effects.

Of course, EDE ! I looked everywhere else and it was there right in front of me all the time.
Many Thanks.

My machine crawls if I'm zoomed in on a fire after explosion, or even have it in the scope for that matter. Bloody fraggin annoying. Got P/D down to 80%, anything less and other graphic affects become a joke.
2 ghz machine w/ 2 gigs ram & a 256 card.
Sometimes reduced to battles in the F6 screen. :nope:

Generally I don't have performance issues, (well, no complaints so far !) and I'm running GWX 2.0 with OLCE and a couple of small mods on a Celeron pc, 1.5 gig ram, crappy Geforce 6200 256 card. It runs like a dream until that intense fire (just before sinking), then its creep at 3fps so i have to look elsewhere. Shall remove EDE when back in port.
Used to have serious slow framerates in Navmap screen (2 fps) at 16x TC! So I don't use SH3 Gen anymore, which is a shame as I used to like using that, Oh well, can't have it all.

Well, you know what they say, Herr Trigger by name, Herr Trigger by nature, (according to Mrs. Trigger anyway). LOL !
