    So what are they anyway. I found that in Tomb Raider legend they affect a lot the FPS, even more that FSAA. But when I turn them on I can't really tell the difference. Does anyone know what they refer to in that game?
    Thanks.

    Googling for tomb raider legend full screen effects

    The 3rd link gives you an article saying this:

    "Crystal Dynamics didn’t content themselves with all that – the screenshots don’t do this game justice. They added a host of full-screen effects such as motion blur, depth of field, dust fog (no, not the cheap, frame rate-increasing kind), etc."

    I'm tempted to link to justf**kinggoogleit.com... sorry to come down hard on you. It's not you specifically, its the culture of "make a post to solve something that I could easily and more rapidly solve myself" that I'm on against.

    I'm tempted to start linking people to JustchilltheF**CKout.com. What makes you so much better than everyone else? What are these forums here for anyway? Also, if this post was a problem, you'd think the moderators would have done something about it, but they haven't, so it's most likely fine. If you have a problem with it, no one is making you post.
