At some point, the Enhanced version of UP1.6 will include the AI-Enhanced units & buildings textures. However, at the current stage and AI-models development speed, it's better to wait a few months / years to get the best possible results. It's not like I forgot about it.

Please do not use "Low" graphics settings in EE2. Differences between "High" and "Low" are minimal, often 0 FPS. Please use everything on "High", except "Shadow Details" - "Medium", and "Lighting Details" - "Low" (in EE2: AOS). It's not the GPU that limits the FPS, but the CPU.

This is exactly how anti-missiles work in EE2. All ICBMs in EE2 are flying in the atmosphere. This is why after interception there's no radiation risk. EE2's anti-missiles added in Unofficial Patch are long range, expensive interception technology, not the short range ones.
