“separate settings called “Effects resolution”, “Heat haze” and “Particle density” have been replaced with a single setting called “Effects quality” with different quality values.”

Please revert this change or at least allow us to turn off heat haze separately without affecting the quality of the other settings. As it stands right now, to turn off heat haze I have to put “effects quality” on medium, and this affects “Effects resolution” and “Particle density” as well since they are now all bundled together.

I want to turn off heat haze without downgrading the quality of the other values.

Why are “Effects resolution”, “Heat haze”, and “Particle density” changed to a unified setting? Not everyone likes to activate the three

Nice hotfix thanks.
There’s a bug many players have experienced yesterday about GRB. It’s about spawning to the wrong point you select during the waiting time before the match starts.

Yeah. Frustrating, hope will be fixed very soon

The graphics menu is ruined i used to be able to have heat haze and particles at max with res at medium and get 165fps, but now with the new dumb “effects quality” slider at “medium” i cant get over 80 fps and to boot it looks worse than how I HAD IT. The reason people pick PC is because it gives us control and being told to give it up for a “uNiFiEd” slider that makes the game look worse and run worse is a insult. REMINDER that 70% of gamers still only have 8gb vram. I spent $1,500 (I make very little) on my PC and have only had it for 1.5 years I SHOULDENT have to go buy another one. Please revert to the previous menu. I might have to hang up WT for a whole year again like last time. i7-13650HX 32gb ddr5 RTX-4060 oem acer overclock. mixture of medium to max settings at 1920x1200 165hz. (all caps are not to be aggressive but to make points clear) To be specific the new slider at “medium” looks “WORSE” but keeps the fps and having it at “high” makes the game look “HOW I HAD IT” before but now it runs worse. Something else ive now noticed is idling in the hanger with the RU SU-30 idles at 70fps but idling with the F-15JM is full 165-164 wtffff what are they doing? this is tragic and all started with the major update.

that was the first update that sim got in years

Meanwhile in a 7.7 game last night:

It’s even worse in ARB, plenty of troll squads bringing them to top-tier.

You don’t have to buy ‘another one’, since you should be swapping parts in and our individually (unless you’ve made the mistake to buy a gaming laptop). But your GPU is fine. Your VRAM is not the issue with the resolution you’re playing at.
