[GI] Smart bomb

When I use the smart bomb I don't see it visually so I don't know if I'm using it even though the xeo and mines are deducted. How do I see the smart bomb?

 

do u have explosions on in settings

 

what if im on the 3d client? would it be in effects? if i do that then ill get more than just the smart bomb i think and ill get rocket effects which i dont want. i want the most performance i can get while still being able to see my smart bomb

 

Hello MeGusta_Diablo

Sorry for the delayed response.

Thank you RΣŦÙЯП-ΦF-§ŦЯЇŇG§HØŦ for assisting with this thread.

Make sure under display settings your explosion option is at least set to average in order to see the Smart Bomb effect.

The observation with settings with which I had done a test in 2D & 3D mode is as mentioned below:

2D Mode
Under Display Settings:
Ship: Low
Background: None
Explosion: Average
Zone: Low
Engines: Low
Resource & Boxes: Low

Under Interface Settings:
Show mini map background: Unchecked
Show background: Unchecked

Result: I was able to see the explosion under minimum settings with good performance.

3D Mode
Under Display Settings:
Anti-Aliasing: Low
Textures: High
Effects: High
Background: Low
Lighting: Low
Texture size: Low
Texture filtering: Low

Under Interface Settings:
Show mini map background: Unchecked
Show background: Unchecked

Result: I was able to see the explosion under minimum settings with good performance in 3D mode as well.

Note: Having rocket effect under the above settings will not effect the performance majorly.

Do you (the original poster) have any further questions or can we close?
