The distant clouds are called imposters and I don't allow any of those because they look dreadful...I use 3d clouds only :flying:

Thankyou , Peter -
I always wondered what they meant by that. So if I set imposter_range _radius (or whatever it is) to =0, they will disappear?

That's better, thanks Peter :flying:
I'm getting about 6 frames per second extra over Kelowna in the current (cloudy) conditions with 3d detailed clouds set - a good improvement on the last drivers :D

Excellent, many thanks Peter, much better looking clouds now and more realistic. :dancer:
