You should submit them to HTC. Most likely they will be accepted since you're saving them hours of work. Also after our opinions on the affects come in about any performance related issues it's even more probable that they will be accepted..

I suggested he submit them to HTC for the exact reason of having them in-game anytime anywhere in any terrain.

Looks very good, duh!

I only wonder how much these textures effect to the .res file size over the regular textures.

A change from 32x64 bitmaps to 256x256 bitmaps sounds like quite a big change, but I suppose it wont make such a difference in e.g. H2H maps.

With current 3 new effects, res is about 1 mb.
There is absolutely no fps hit or and kind of stuttering,which is great.;)

Htc would not accept something like this;) IF they wanted to make new effects they'd do it 3 times better.

Based on what, though? H2H? Offline? A single vehicle firing into the water?

Hardly a test for what would be online in a Main Arena... especially near a CV battle with lots of low planes and ack and a thousand splashes.

I was testing it on a machine that was old 4 years ago, radeon 9200, 256 ram, 1800 mhz.
It was on a map full of costume objects,and frame rates were low as is ( about 23-25), with ack firing.I would notice the fps change when firing.;)

AFAIK, the DT does not explode, but instead shatters and sprays the gasoline around.. kinda wet steamy cloud.. or something like that :)

In any case it does not do any damage in the game.
