Oblivion smoke mod
 

As some of you know, I was working on a new smoke awhile ago. Then I got my new PC and lost the earlier work I had done. Well, good thing it happened! I got a lot better looking smoke for you instead of the old one!

The smoke is taken from the game Oblivion, I just darkened it and made some changes to it.

Wooowi... this smoke looks really great!!! :) :up:
I´l download and test it...

And please, give me feedback. I need to know how this works on slower systems and how it looks when particle density is lowered.:up:

Just DL'd it. Will give it a shot later-looks great in the pics. Just concerned about fps hit.

any chance of another d/l link as most of us cant get anything off rapidshare

Great looking SMOKE! :|\\

Looks fabulous, but like others I cannot for some reason download anything from rapidshare anymore.
So untill this is availiable eleswhere I'm going to have to wait :damn:

I have a mid range pc and if I hit a single target it's okay but in a convoy with multiple hits my FPS drops to virtually mothing.

I have a good system (amd64 -2200 / X800/2GB mem). Looks very nice, can't report on convoys yet, but will do if I notice an FPS drop.

Here's a link to the file:

How was the framerates?

No problem as far as I'm concerned (no visible hit). But I can't compare with before as... I installed the GW mod with full eye candy options. Still haven't seen any convoys, I'll take screenies when I do.

Works ok and no visible slowdown in frame rate and that was in Scapa so there were other warships too

Thanx for this - looks and feels great:up: :up:

I was too busy to take screenshots in a convoy, but the fps hit was not a hindrance.

Funny you should use Oblivion as a source, I also have taken many textures and sound effects to make SH3 more convincing. I didn't think about the particle texturing, great work!

Hehe, I was roaming the city on the main quest which is destroyed and saw the smoke. Looked so nice, that I just had to take it. :D

Here is something I did with terrain, give it a try

This is my 512 pix version I am trying to find a better provider to put up my massive 4096 bundle :know:

I am having trouble grabbing yours. Is there a secret handshake or something?
