frame rate drop inside new clouds
« on: May 18, 2017, 08:34:27 PM »
Seeing ~20 fps during "gray out" inside the clouds -- much lower than when cloud detail is shown.  (And much lower than inside old style clouds.)

On second thought...  low frame rate might not matter if I can't see anything to shoot at.   :D

5,000yds from clouds un-zoomed FPS 59-60, zoomed 42-50. Just before entering clouds FPS 42, it gradually got worse as I closed to the clouds, inside vary's from 12-52. As long as I did not get right next to clouds, FPS with numbers of contacts around me never effected my FPS.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

Near/inside the clouds on dx11, I got stutter.  Near/inside the clouds on dx9, no stutter.  Frame rate stayed pegged at all times in both cases.

If you think you are having a 1v1 in the Main Arena, your SA has failed you.
