Thank you for the replies guys.
The issue happens in the base game as well.
I am using Macbook Pro M1(https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-mac/macbook-pro/16-inch).
VM OS is Windows 11. Emulation via Parallels desktop.
Can't see graphics of explosions and napalm
@azurefireice That's what I thought.
perhaps the problem is in your hardware. the M1 processor is still very specific. How its GPU cores will perceive all these abstract layers and the translation of instructions in a virtual machine is not very clear.
on a new computer with a new gpu supporting vulcan with linux OS on proton 5,6,7, it was possible to apply dgvoodoo
on an old computer with a gpu without vulcan support, I have to use proton 4.11 and I failed to apply dgvoodoo there (even taking into account the addition of additional DX10,11 libraries to the proton prefix, which this gpu seems to be able to do)
in general, it seems to me that you should try to play not in a virtual machine, but the OS of your mac. this is also linux steam and proton emulation tools are available to you.
it seems to me that there is no experience of running the game on M1 yet and this is very interesting
@fractal Can you please point me towards proton emulation tools so that I can set it up on my mac?
if you have steam installed in your system, then proton of any version can be easily found in mеnu library, do a search in the tools (there is a switch somewhere between games and tools like a blender (proton in the same place ...)
if you want to use proton regardless of steam, everything is a little more complicated, you will have to figure out a lot.
I can't paste an image here, but I can't install Proton on mac from steam. For all of them install option is not available.
Looks like MacOS does not support proton:

sadly.
I read a couple more projects on the github hub in this more or less clearly they say that support for DX10, 11 is the maximum for the mac. and there is a modified vulcan1.1
in general, it all takes a long time to try. there is probably no quick fix.
This video troubles me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukKOy20BwBk
According to it my setup should work as it is identical to the one on the video. But unfortunately does not work.
@azurefireice and what are the results of FAF performance through a virtual machine?
settings/fps? cpu rating?
Settings - highest, FPS did not measure but no stuttering whatsoever so i'd assume >50. CPU rating 360.
@azurefireice it works very well.
as far as I could estimate, the same thing disappears everywhere according to the effects.
it cannot be said that critically important things are missing. but the explosions... explosions are very lacking.
@azurefireice the game engine has its own basics FPS meter on the "/" key where the figure is larger and clearer 
CPU rating 360. - but that's a shame. the computer is powerful and the evaluation is buggy
