Performance Increase for the 352nd CCM
« on: June 14, 2010, 11:34:56 AM »
Since using the 352nds great CCM, I noticed that the amount of autogenerated trees was really giving me poor fps when flying down low.
Per Canon's great advice, I have edite the tree.tga files in order to give less autogenerated trees (but still a fair number :P ) on the map.
Note; this is WIP, although I'm happy with this.

test it out. If you feel that there are too-few trees on some field textures then let me know and I'll look into it ;)

Yep, I thinned out the dots on mostly all of the files. So the tree-lines should all be there, but a fair amount thinner. I took a few pics. If I have time then maybe I'll post them ;)
If there are one or two .tga's with less than adequate trees I'll try and edit them to have more ;)

EDIT to this; I changed my forest=2 to forest=3 in my conf.ini, and now I'm getting no fps loss with the original auto-gen tree.tga's so I don't think this is needed :D

S!

 The strange thing is that Forest=3 has less performance hit than Forest=2 for some odd reason. I have tested this on lower end systems too and Forest=3 works just fine.

Me too, with forest=2 I had some strange shadows wich lower my FPS, no issue with Forest=3

OK, so to add, for anyone who only wishes to use forest-2, then my permformance fix is helpful, but really forest=3 looks and plays better! :D

Does anyone else get moving trees with forest-2! :O

Must be a mediafire problem, I'll have to re-upload it.

Can I ask what line you have for the    forest=    entry in the conf.ini? As when I made this I had it set to 2 which gave me issues, but setting it to 3 solved my problem ;)

I the problem more large got it in the cities towns and airports, that lower me FPS an unbearable amount, but still wonder such as this, since it seems to me that would not have that be so not?We need a solution to the problem of cities already...
