    I think soke is controlled by "effects" in the advanced options, so try turning off effects.

    my guess would be to alter something in the descr_flaming_projectiles.txt... but I am not sure...

    Try looking in the Mod Workshop. Should be something in there to help. I've noticed a drop in FPS too with gunpowder units on the screen.

    I guess You are looking for the descr_artillery_effects. Perhaps setting the anim_time to 0 will disable the smoke - no clou. Havenīt done that at all. Perhaps You canīt set it to 0.

    I think those three lines anim_time, max_scale and max_particle_scale could be interesting. Perhaps replacing the .cas files with empty ones will help too. Erm - perhaps not.

    Like CC said, take a look in the Mod Workshop

    I figured since the guy had a thread about it, I might as well ask him, since he might have gotten an answer already.
