ASA Cloud Removal Command
r.volumetricCloud 0

I have seen more than one person mention this command line as something to be used to greatly improve performance in game as it removes the very dense clouds they have added. I'm not sure if this is something changed in the Config files or something typed in the console and just wanted to know if anyone here had any idea.

You type it in console command

It’s in the console once you’re in the game proper

And please for the love of God everyone complaining about performance issues, read this post

This video helped me. Looks a lot clearer and runs totally smooth, when I can get on to play.

This didn't help me and I have current hardware. It lags like crazy and is unplayable.

Is there a way to turn down quality without turning it off completely?

You're doing something wrong. I was running at 60 fps consistently at med settings with a 3080 TI, even before I used this command.

Is there a way to make make this the default on my Nitrado server?

I don’t see an option in settings but could I add that line in my Gamesettings.ini file?

I’m here for this answer as well. It’s cool that we can turn it off, but kind of annoying we have to do it every time.
