I was thinking, that if you go into the "config.exe"--->Performace tab, you should be able to have more control over the "Particles On Screen" section. I mean, think about it, you could have Check Boxes for the following...
Burning SmokeDebris/ShrapnelFireAfter-Explosion Smoke
And a slider for the following...
BloodBullet Trail LengthSmoke and FireDebris
And some pre-sets, like High, Medium and Low (like now), so looking like this (sorry about the "Character Art";D)...

Particles On Screen

Where the...

O is a radio button
[] is a Check box
<-------------------------------|-> is a slider bar
See what i mean?

yes. I think the whole graph was sorta unnecesary.
Well, nothing wrong with more options....

...I take that back. But i like this idea. And what is debrits? do u mean debris? ok then.

debris, debrits, same, ill change it then

lol, I would've turn all them on and to max anyway, to get the most of it!!!

i cant thou, swap PC's and ull no wat i mean! anyway, i think most PC's over 500 mhz should handle Maximum. but alot of cash stripd buyers cant afford them (like me). Max on my pc + 8 or more players(inc. bots)= DISASTER!!!!!!!!!!!

Then just keep your settings turned down and get a job to buy a better computer?

case closed! anyone else like it?

This would probably be a a lot of extra programing for michal. Maybe you can just add an extra stick of ram to your pc?

Well, it wouldn't be THAT hard to implent... except the bullet trail lenghts, maybe.

Unlucky, I love you :D
I want this to be implemented!!
