great observations.... well, there is a few cvars that can help us with this
weapon_flamethrower_glow "1" weapon_flamethrower_dynamiclight "1" weapon_flamethrower_heatwave "0"
the heat-wave effect seems to be very, maybe 1-2 fps, so i didnt like how it looked, the dynamiclight and glow turned on, havent made much of a performance impact when using it to fight
what i think KILLS performance, unfortunately, is a different cvar for the main settings
r_fire_dynamiclight 1 (default 0)
i believe that ESPECIALLY at night, this gives fire an "hdr" like effect, by making ambient flames give out a nice dense glow, the only problem is, after 4-5 lights on at the same time, the GPU begins to bleed, this is probably cause source never intended to have a lot of dynamic light sources
but other than that it performs fine...i think :]
and yeah gaurd, i really hope to work on this....as long as it can be improved for, i also like how the community is pretty small, i can only hope it stays this way, also, if we do embark on this long long journey, some better forums will be a must, ill keep the same theme, colors icons etc if possible, but i feel limited here, not being able to upload files larger than like a mb etc. Anyway thats random thoughts, back to work
