Hi Thorsten, Some quick finds: First I get this when opening the shader settings dialog: Nasal runtime error: non-objects have no members at $FG_ROOT/Nasal/props.nas, line 181 called from: __dlg:shaders-lightfield, line 32 and the slider is off to the right, and can't be of much use. Second, the "fast"(4) water lacks specularity, is this intended? Third, there are lawnmower/corn rows on the detail textures, I suspect these to come from texture fetching inside conditionals, but I might also be wrong. Fourth, and I'm sorry to say this, but the (micro)stuttering is horrible in high detail terrain, (just staying put and rotating the view), and that stuttering at the 22-25 fps it outputs gives a much worse impression than a fluid constant 16 fps. I still think that doing heavy work in the vertex shader won't cut it, it might give *you* a fps boost in corner cases, but the way that scenery is going it will only make matters worse in the long run... (NV 8800gt here, in case that matters) Sorry for being the negative voice :) Cheers Emilian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't let slow site performance ruin your business.
