Fantomas Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 (edited) as a Huey pilot, the popping up of the grass is really annoying. so i tried to adjust the slider for clutter and grass - finding out that it has absolutely no effect. setting it to zero: there is still grass/bushes displayed. setting it to ANY value bigger than zero: grass/bushes are displayed only 50 meters around me. so whatever i set this to, it always looks the same! neither can i completely deactivate it, nor set it to a value high enough so the grass is displayed at higher distance.

Mustang Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 (edited) Yeah I use both a 48" screen and a Rift S too - as for the grass I have put together a quick mod for the PG map for now https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GoQYXkYilNrsQ4rCL_pCOWpEKjf-QxLz/view?usp=sharing it contains dummy textures that stops the bushes/grass clumps from rendering, just extract contents and drop the two zips into DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\terrains\PersianGulf\vfstextures folder.

The slider works on my side (latest OB): I take it you want these scarce remaining pieces of grass gone as well?

(at 0:14) wow that is interesting. i never saw that dense grass, at least not on Syria and PersianGulf. i just dont have that. what i meant were those tiny bushes every 5 meters in your video. i thought these shouold be affected by the slider. but in your video, they are not affected. and when you fly over them, they keep popping up as they are only rendered to a max distance of maybe 50 meters.

RyanL Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Very late to the topic, but is there a way to increase the render distance of those grass-bushes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jnr4817 Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 How much of a performance hit does the grass, small bushes, and trees make when maxed versus slid all the way to the left? I’d rather have performance than grass, bushes, and trees. Also, an OvGme file that gets rid of or replaces with a very low lod texture would be killer for each map. Arma 3 has something like this and it prevents the treaded pop up bushes from happening. 1 8600K|64 GB 3200|4090|m.2 http://www.blacksharkden.com/ Come join us!
