The Borg Cube of DEATH!!!

  • :D

    I find that the current Aerofly shadow solution sucks massive frames, so I tend to turn them off. As I mentioned in another thread, ideally it would be great if there was setting with full Hi-rez shadows on the plane and aircraft shadows on the ground, while all other shadows are disabled.

    Over New York, the difference can literally be 100fps or more!

    So on my machine, I'm running with the lowest possible shadow settings. Unfortunately this creates a huge artifact in the ground that follows the plane ominously, that I've named the Borg Cube Of Death.

    Any suggestions on getting rid of this puppy?

    Hiflyer, great shots!

    You almost tempted me to re-install AEFS2... :) but I think I will wait for the Q-400, maybe the first helicopter and some news on the weather modelling side, like rain / snow, an more cloud types...

  • LOL!

    Hopefully Starfleet will address the threat, soon. :cool:
