Really, there is fog in the game even with EE unchecked and the now separate fog unchecked. It was always there. This fog looks better than the SH3 fog as well. Originally I thought EE would have everything, rain, fog, wind, rough seas etc. I was wrong. EE is basically the see through water and the volumetric fog, this fog being the FPS killer.

Great, I have everything turned on, love the transparent water, I will leave the volumetric fog unchecked try later Did you do the other thing, un-checking the dev stuff in the main.cfg file.

How and what dev-stuff do you turn off?

also, thanks for the Vsync info. I'm not sure what it does on my computer right now, but I'll tool around with it when I get home.

I do not use sun glare, 3d water, volumetric fog and that sun rays through the air and water option...I forget what it is called. It is a nice effect but kills my FPS.

Sliders all at full with exception of the land object/AOD whatever that is. These are at 1/2.

I use an ATI card/X1300. All that stuff is set on quality and AA X4.
