    Annoying Vapor trail

    Hello

    I don't suppose we could get an option or just eliminate it completely, that annoying vapor trail you get off your mount when your flying. I know it's just something they added to give an "effect" but its pretty pointless and doesn't really add that much to the game.

    Thanks

    Annoying? I actually love seeing the contrail that occasionally appears when flying (usually when 'gliding') - it looks especially cool when flying the griffin.

    Each to their own I guess though.

    I think it looks weird in some of the place though. Like you only fly low attitude in Hinterland but the vapor trail still exist. It just...weird.

    Heh, I was just thinking a few hours ago that I'd like to disable it, or have it not appear below a certain height.

    Technically not a contrail, as they are formed by the engines exhaust gas freezing at high altitude. Wing tip vorticies.

    Actually these happen more at low altitude due to having more water vapor in the air. Its compression of that vapor that form in the wings vorticies.

    I think its a nice added touch being an aviation person I like it.

    I thought this was going to be a conspiracy thread. I'm slightly disappointed.

    I like it and guess I am not the only one, so if they ever address it I hope they will just add it as an option under graphic settings.

    I really enjoy seeing the vortices. It may be my imagination but they seem more visible during certain weather conditions and in certain areas and I really appreciate that.
