I had an awesome looking version but then it was butchered with a blowtorch and chainsaw into what you have now.

Why was it butchered? o_O

Have any of you tried "e_clouds 0" on Frostbite?

It doesn't remove all clouds and snow but it really lessens the thickness of the effect, which in turn jumps your FPS up quite a bit.

I noticed that the only time my computer really struggles for FPS in this mod is when trying to render a thick area of imposters (clouds). Like looking up into the clouds on Clearcut, I would immediately dip to low FPS and stutters until I look away from it.

I know it's not all of the problem but it may be some of it.

Never tried that, and I grt drioud FPS issues on clearcut and Inferno (although not so much in frostbite). I'll definetly try that.
..., but this is battletech, and sense is often not made.

Well it wasn't going to be ready for 0.3 if I remember right, and thus we used a modified version. As Shadow mentioned, the plan is to remake it with TC in mind in the future (not 0.4 sorry).
