Missing some graphical effects

[QuantumProjects]

FAF Team,

I don't know if this is actually a bug, but when my UEF T1 Bombers drop their payload, I don't get any explosion or fire graphical effect - the ground merely turns black as if it was scorched, but nothing else happens.

I'm also pretty sure there was no graphical effect in unmodded Supreme Commander either.

I'm playing on my laptop, an Asus Aspire 5745, Intel HD Graphics, with fully updated regular drivers from Intel (the latest Acer drives were, ironically, very outdated).

I couldn't find any post on this issue, so I would like to know if the game is really like that: is there no explosion graphical effect for the UEF T1 Bomber? I could find some videos on Youtube displaying a napalm effect for their payload, but I'm not sure it is a vanilla effect.

Missing barrels from T1 Medium Tanks also do not explode when they hit the ground. I could swear I've seen some sort of graphical effect for missing barrels on some Youtube videos.

Thanks in advance!

PS> I've finally managed to get a FAF cast on Youtube zoomed close enough to assert that yes, there is a graphical effect for the explosion of the UEF T1 Bomber payload. I'll take a report and place it here.

Logs attached. In this game, I've built an Air Base, then a T1 Bomber, and then I've given it an order to bomb a location. I've quit the game about 2s after every bomb hit the ground. I've got the scorched earth effect, but not the napalm effect. Playing as UEF.

I've googled it, but I haven't found a bug report for anything resembling this problem.

I appreciate any help I get.

I've also got a screenshot of the problem. As you can see, two of the four bombs dropped by my UEF T1 Bomber had already hit the ground, the others are still in the air. There was no napalm effect, the ground just turned black.
