What else does it affect? I.e. are there any negative results because of it?

Post by: LigH on December 26, 2010, 11:13:18 am: Item instancing, when supported correctly, can improve the rendering performance. But it may only be measurable for thousands of copies being visible at the same time. For a waysign here or there, you won't notice by "Frames per Second" if it is enabled or disabled.
