Sometimes You can notice how the effects that simulate smoke, dust and foliage (shedding of foliage, scattering of foliage on asphalt) in the video game Juiced THQ 2005 can last relatively short, or disappear instantly after appearing. In technical language or in the language of the 3D modeling world and in working with particles, the delay time of effects is sometimes referred to as the lifetime of particles or effects (or the length of the effects' life). The lifetime of particles and effects is set by the developer, but this does not mean that the developer's setting will become a strict default parameter. What does this mean?
So it turns out that in practice it depends on several conditions:
- SSD or HDD; the location: the installation path of the video game on a personal computer, for example, the user has chosen another place to install the video game, it may be a special drive that is not a logical disk, a disk volume. And in this case, it's a HDD and the disk response speed is significantly less than the SSD response speed. It happens otherwise;
- NVIDIA and AMD: the version of the GPU (video card) driver package;
- DirectX: version of the DirectX driver package.
From the above it is difficult to point out what exactly affects the length of the effects' life (the lifetime of particles or effects). The answer turns out to be controversial, for someone - DirectX, - SSD/-HDD, - version of the graphics driver.
But, as practice shows, in my individual case, it depends only on the version of the NVIDIA video driver package. For example, after installing the package 471.96, the delay in the life of particles or effects increased (which is a normal - the effects lasted longer: in real life, when the weather is calm, the foliage falls slowly, and dust and smoke blow in the air and dissipate also slowly). The two previous packages, these are versions 471.68 and 471.41 - the length of the effects' life was shortened, their duration was short-lived and the use of additional settings in the NCP (NVIDIA Control Panel), contained in the Standard driver package type (NCP is not available for NVIDIA DCH), did not affect this - in addition,
the video game Juiced THQ 2005 is not susceptible to these settings (no need to try adjust NCP for the Juiced THQ 2005).
If You notice that the lifetime of particles or effects is short, then try to revert to the previous version of the driver package, or install the next version of the driver package for the GPU.
Need to perform a clean installation process, do not install the driver package as update: uninstall the current version and after that do clean installation process.
