Endless Madness 2: Nuclear Boogaloo (v1.2.0) - New: GZDoom Edition!

No, I have an RTX GPU. The smoke effects are very taxing, still.

You're right, it seems the "tank shell impact" does produce about 182 sprites worth of smoke, which is quite a lot.
I assume that must be the smoke you're referring to?

How much does your FPS drop? Could you tell me your screen resolution and which RTX card you're using?

Yup, that's it.

A lot.

2880 x 1620 on a 3080 Laptop (somewhere between a desktop 3060 Ti and 3070, speedwise), but it is bad at 0.5 scaling, too. It's certainly a CPU thing, not a GPU thing at this point.

I did a few tweaks, and now the smoke and shaking doesn't slow it down that much anymore (used to go down to 1 fps), but all those conscripts being active, firing at me at the same time, still manage to give me stutters (around 17.5 fps for the 0.1% lows, according to RTSS).
