I'm having that problem with the current map, and my score has dropped considerably.  Clouds and the current terrain lead to chop when I make my attack, and usually result in a lot of misses.  I'll probably wait until after Christmas to do any sort of hardware upgrade, though.  If things get too bad, I can always do some GV work.

Clouds are a problem to me, but nowhere near as bad as smoke!  My framerate goes to the crapper when defending a burning base.  hehe.  I really need to upgrade.

0,FastVertexProccessing

I have a pretty low powered system by today's standards - a 1.4 Athlon and a Geforce 2 Mx400.  With today's AH I am getting 65-85 fps, typical with lows in the 40's for intense stuff.  

It is the new game you will have to worry about.   I remember when Warbirds changed over to Warbirds III, serious case of dejavu here.   They are not done with AH2, but wouldn't it be ironic if Warbirds III turns out to be more forgiving of older computers?
