please add a button to just disable them and not the other effects that dont kill fps, now if you are one of those jerks that is gonna say "buy better GPU, CPU, etc. i tell you that i dont have a money tree in my backyard and that adding a simple button to disable some fog in the graphics menu shouldnt take much effort for the developers of such a great game, also i see this issue has been higly discussed in the past and now everyone seems to dont remind it, yet im here to remember you that it is there, im a new player and the way eve welcomed me was with a huge amount of lag coming from rather ugly clouds that dont add much to the game experience.

Best bet is to either toggle "effects" off or lower your shader settings, then turn them back on/up once you've left the pocket.

I seem to remember that there was a dev asking to be told (via bug report / petition) about any mission with overpowering clouds. I think he was getting them removed or at least stripping out multiple clouds.

Blood Raider's Blockade L4 is pretty nasty where optimization is concerned last I ran it. My old rig would drop to 30-40 fps even when fully zoomed out.

Happen to have that Dev's name by any chance? Given how swamped CCP might still be with bug reports and petitions as of late, it might take an eternity if I just right it up without a name to give out.
