My jaw has issued an official complaint. It's getting sick and tired of dropping to the floor every time I see pics of your new stuff! :rotfl:
With regards to the tweaks you mentioned, what exactly did you do? You still have an ATi card, right? I'm trying to optimize my new rig (yep, got an ATi again, but this time the HD3650, which means sun glare from the box!), which means lots of tweaking from scratch, since all my old settings are either a) for my antiquated and now replaced rig, or b) forgotten

Hi Dr. Beast, Sorry... :rotfl: Soon you can see it in realtime

Regarding the tweaks: I noticed that the framedrop was in the harbours looking at the bow wakes and started examining why after that I took the files controling the wakes and resized them and saved them as best possible settings in DDS, the same thing is done to the clouds-textures, light shafts etc. etc.

Ah, but you see, the problem is that my jaw keeps dropping even after I've installed your work! But hey, I'm a metalhead, I'll just train my jaw to handle the pain! :rotfl:

Regarding the tweaks: a-HA! So it wasn't just me that experienced that! I noticed that too on my new rig and I was cursing the money I spent on it! Funny thing is, I never noticed that slowdown on my old junk-bucket! In stormy weather or in the harbor, my FPS would drop to about 8-9 whenever I aimed my camera toward the bow wakes. Driving me nuts, it was!

Okay...I'm just ready to go on a campaign but see now I should wait 24 hours. Beautiful work by the way.

My only question is if this mod can be plopped on top of the current TMO/RSRD mods which is all I am using right now?

Hi Scrapser. Yes this mod should work with TM and RSRD, I have tried not to mess with anything from those mods and that was one of the reasons for leaving the special effects mod out (oilleak / flying crewmen) og this release, because it messes with TM's zones and sub files.

I haven't tried Ducimus latest SP 1 - 2 though.
