sirrah Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 Maybe I never took notice of it before, but since I did, I can't stop seeing it... When flying around over the Caucasus I can clearly see a ring around me where trees start to spawn (I assume these are the "speed trees" I've read about?). Obviously I understand this is required to keep performance up to a certain level. While trying to find out what setting would influence the radius of this ring, I got rather surprised. I assumed that the "Trees Visibility" slider would have effect on this. However, I tried sliding it to minimum (30%) and maximum (100%) and I literally didn't see any change whatsoever. Then I tried the "Visible Range" (or actually "Visib Range") setting to low and extreme and there I did see a difference. Not that much, but I did see difference. So... I was wondering, what exactly does the "Trees Visibility" slider do? :huh: @moderator: Not sure if this is a bug or if I'm doing something wrong here...

Taz1004 Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 Are you saying doing this doesn't do anything on your end? Visibility Range will extend your maximum tree visibility and tree visibility should adjust the trees within the visibility range. Not sure I explained that correctly but basically they both work together. At least supposed to. I'm not using modified terrainoptions41.lua in that video.

Mustang Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 Thanks Flappie I'll certainly give it a shot If you want boosted tree draw distance with that modified terrainoptions41.lua make sure to bump up the 'distancFactor' in your graphics.lua, Extreme = 3.0 is a good number to set and is what I use daily.
