The falling pine needles, for comparison, are only 128x128 with just 4 frames of animation. Even in the best of situations, this contributed to a significantly lower minimum framerate in this area, compared to other parts of Skyrim. The leaves require more animation as they are asymmetrical and are spinning and twirling. The vanilla leaves are 512x512px, fast moving, animated objects, with 64 frames of animation, and upwards of 20 can fall at any time. I figured I could greatly increase performance in The Rift by degrading the quality of the complex falling leaves FX. The Rift, or Autumn area of Skyrim, is the most graphically demanding part of the world, on my computer. Therefore, by reducing the textures in these particle effects, we can expect a variable degree of graphic performance improvement, depending on your system and graphic setup. The special effects in this game, like snow and rainfall, are called particles, and are rendered by the already overtaxed CPU. Even the real-time shadows are CPU intensive. Especially because this game is already very demanding of a CPU. However, PC gamers play at higher resolutions, and use effects like Amibient Occlusion, Anistropic Filtering, Anti-Aliasing, and Post Processing Effect Filters. It's important to mention, the console versions run at only ~30 FPS, at lower resolutions, and indeed have framerate problems at times. It's generally the opposite for PC gamers, which have extremely powerful GPUs. Skyrim was designed for consoles, which have good CPUs, but weak GPUs. I had big problems with the falling aspen leaves in The Rift area of the game. Some users are reporting performance problems with certain effects like snow and rainfall.
