Performance Tweak

I saw this over on the official Rift forums. Not sure how much it will help us, but figured I'd share the info so everybody else can give it a go. The main new item was the CullDistance. The way the explanation says it works seems to make me wary that it will help with a multi-box situation, but I'm game to try it.

VfxCullDistance = 256
VFXLimit = 75000
LightingComplexity = 10.000000
MainThreadCPU = 0

If VfxCullDistance does not exist for you, you can add that line below VFXLimit. Yes, you will be increasing the settings on your graphics. This works because it keeps effects loaded at longer ranges, so your graphics card doesn't have to undergo the strain of loading/unloading effects at various ranges or because too many are on screen.

I did this "tweak" with all my computers, including my wifes' and it worked really well. Was able to turn each computer up a setting graphically.

I did this tweak gonna test it out now i changed VfxCullDistance = 256 and i changed Simple.
Find your Rift.cfg in your Rift folder, open it with notepad
Find the line "VFXLimit = "
Replace the number at the end with a lower number. I typically use 10 or 20 for raiding.
The line should now read "VFXLimit = 10"
Save and Restart your game
