Issue still with smoke
« on: June 07, 2013, 02:50:30 am »

Another issue I thought I would highlight. Through the smoke you can see what looks like a border of the suns ray or something, not sure really. I'm sure I saw this before. Nvidia again?

The perf issue with Nvidia was fixed in 3722 build. The smoke is still just an experimental thing and it will undergo some revisions. In times it may even vanish in a puff for a while :)

It's enabled by default, the parameters can be slightly modified in eng.cfg - bloom_power (0.03) and bloom_threshold (1.0)
