Hi guys. Just wondering. I guess its mosly to MH but it could be for other people with the open source thing.

Could adapting the graphics on the fly to keep up a minumum FPS work with SDOE or with the computer caculating stuff slow it done to much to be of use? I though other games did this and i would love somthing like this if it worked. It would kinda be like LODS but apply to everything.

it would be like the computer adjusting the texture and object detail sliders on the fly during the game too keep the sim over 20 or so FPS

This one is well worth working on.. with this, and Razers idea about changing the LODS for bombers we could actually see large bomber formations in the game without substatial loss of FPS... really.. well worth a look at guys
