[CHECKING] Units disappear at 3km

[some1]

Or to be more precise, they turn into single pixel dot. Only heavy armor units are not affected.

Modern DCS vehicles don't have such awesome cloaking devices

 

 

Now you see them all:

 

Now you don't:

This is bump-worthy.

New bump required. Any dev comment? Nineline?

Thank you for demonstrating the issue so clearly.

(It's one of the reasons why I find too many WWII campaign missions terribly frustrating, when I target AAA emplacements).

This issue needs to be addressed.

Faulty LoDs. Instead of switching to a lower poly model they blink out of existence entirely.

Here’s a thread from almost a year ago with similar issues. There are some good suggestions for increasing visibility distances that might be useful here:

It sucks that ED keeps making things like this intentionally worse and we have to come up with the fixes for this shit. Getting tired of it honestly.

BUMP

 

I just discovered this too. I took the FW-190D9 for a ride and tried to do some AG stuff and noticed that the WW2 asset pack units disapeared(not tanks?) very quickly while normal DCS ground units are visible from far away compared to the asset pack units.

 

pic 1 - ww2 units visible

pic 2 - now they are gone

pic 3 - ordinary Kamaz trucks

 

EDIT:

ED could you please fix this? :beer:

This is a realy game stopper for me as most of the time i do AG stuff and was hoping to do some of this in the upcoming FW-190A8. It's a long time ago i flew ww2 planes, helicopter and jets are my most used modules in DCS.

Faulty LoDs.

 

Missing LODs, more like. Or that's what I've heard at any rate.

[Sniper175]

same issue here big bummer so got to memorize terrain where they are.

[DD_Fenrir]

OI!

 

DEVS!

 

WAKEY-WAKEY!

[msalama]

Well all ground units, modern and WW2, now seem to disappear at 3km or so. Something wrong with the LOD rendering? This is in the latest OB. Or are my current settings perhaps causing this somehow?

Still seeing this issue after the draw distance improvements?

 

If someone has that original mission from the 1st post could you share, if not I will throw one together myself.

I don't have the mission, but I just want to say that I really appreciate this is getting checked (and bump the thread by doing so) :thumbup:
