Sorry to be late, but it's the week end. In my case i use a Lod Factor
of "8" without Fps loss, i have tested all standard missions with or without
TC. Maybe FPS losses are system dependant?
A LOD value of 8 seems to be the highest value to influence the quality
of the environment.
Another information: i use the original 16km visibility mod because i prefer the stockgame reflexions and water colors, so i have imported
myself the Seeadler's Cloudfix, after running some tests i was surprised
that my scene.dat file had a size of only 355k compared to the original one
of 2600k . In fact, when i imported the Clouds.obj file in my scene.dat file
Pack 3d didn't repack all TGA textures(Fog.tga,N00.TGA,Sun.tga
and,Moon.tga), i needed to repack all tga via DatExtract to come back to the normal. So the "Atmospheric"fog came back. But this not suffisant
In the original file from Manuel Ortega some values need to be corrected
via an HexEditor to equilibrate the 16km Scene.dat file.
