In reply to Aveliumar. Removing those lines caused the glow from air filter lights to revert back to normal. Also traffic lights seemed to revert to normal too. I can live with the fps drop, was just hoping for not as much as a hit. I imagine since this mod is a light source, the more you add the less fps you are going to get.

They are located in BFv3.0 1.Base for ATS\unit\hookup\

Love the look of these flares, however they have a serious impact to your graphics.

In the middle of nowhere with lights on, no BF mod = 85FPS. With mod installed, HUGE FPS hit of 20 and FPS drops to 64 on my system. Very playable but that 20 FPS hit shows very poor optimization.

GTX 970 all drivers up to date.
