enable arty shell in WoT tweaks

[stussy]

does anyone know which WoT tweaks checkbox enables arty shells hitting the ground?  i've played around with various settings and can't seem to find which one affects this.

 

please answer only if you know for sure.  TIA.

Probably "Shell explosion effects"?

 

But if you check it, you DISABLE that effect.

already tried that.  that only affects shells hitting your tank.  i'm trying to activate when arty shells miss your tank and splash on the ground nearby.

If you want to see the effect, don't select any of the WoT Tweaks

 

If you cannot see the effect when you have unchecked all the WoT Tweaks, there's something else disabling them..

 

If you check things in WoT Tweaks, you disable (turn OFF) the said effects.

ok, please re-read my original post.  i specifically asked only to respond if you know for sure.  if you're not sure, then you're not adding anything to this thread.

obviously, i'm running wot tweaks because i want the fps gains.  i'm trying to figure out which one affects arty splash shells without having to experiment with each option one at a time.

Yeah, I read it, no need to get nasty about it. :wacko:

Simply replied, trying to help you, because you seem to be thinking the checkboxes enable effects, when the checkboxes disable effects.

Guess I shouldn't have done that. I regret it now.

And oh, look at that... it IS "Shell Explosion Effects". Which I mentioned in the first reply.

Uncheck "Disable Shell Explosion Effects".

sorry if it sounded harsh.  didn't mean to come across that way and wasn't trying to be nasty.

 

i appreciate the effort.  just that i'm weary of forums where people clutter threads with posts that have no relevance.

 

yes, i tried the shell explosion effects option and that didn't work.  like i said before, it only seems to affect shells that hit your tank.  i'm looking for arty splash effects.  i.e., arty shell misses your tank and hits the ground nearby your tank.

 

again, thanks for the effort.

Did you look in my spoiler tag?

The effects that Shell Explosion Effects handle, are the ground hits, sand hits, water hits, snow hits

[stussy]

yes, i unchecked that before but it still wasn't showing arty shells splashing.  i'm wondering if an in-game setting could override the wot tweaks setting.

[Quaksen]

It's been ages since I looked at the ingame settings, so can't really say much there, apart from, have a look

 

Maybe there's an effect setting there, that you have turned down, that affects it, even if it didn't use to, it might have been changed in WoT itself.

 

Also WoT Tweaks got removed again, so it might not be functioning properly yet at all.. hmm. Mysteries all around :)

[stussy]

the only option left in the current modpack is remove tree motion effects.  :wacko:

Yeah, due to: "- removed WoT Tweaker because crashing the game (should be back later after better investigation)"

[stussy]

so i wonder why tree effects is still in there...
