Extended Particles
Welcome my friends to extended particles. This mod is pretty simple in its ideas. Me and Philip both worked a long while on Ehanced Particles to make realistic looking dust during battles, without trashing those precious frame rates. This is my own personal version that I use for YouTube videos and Screenshots (see above for a few examples). This version uses dust that hangs around for longer and is a little thicker, as well as rising a little higher in the air. It is also effected by wind so that gusts of dust blow across the battlefield, so expect quite a large FPS hit if on a lower end machine.
Particle Effect option needs to be on ‘very high’ or above

Petellius
I am using GEM, Ancient Empires and Extended Particles within this mod.
For GEM I use the default realistic shader with ehanced god rays and flares as well as more ambient light.
My brightness and gamma both hang around 14-16 depending on the lighting.
