the rendering distance is an LOD problem with many of the objects ingame.
lowfighter was doing some great work with increasing LOD's of many objects, maybe you can find one of his threads (map section) on what he was doing in that regard. I've been able to change the 'pop-up' distance of many objects by editing their relevant mat files, if indeed that is what you are referring to... 8)

Hmmm, I think there is no reason for 16Q antialiasing, regular 16X is enough, and 16Q affect FPS. Q is not for quality in this case (I think it has something with software related antialiasing, something like that :roll: )

bigboss, that is exactly what i am referring to. i would love to see objects at a greater distance, like towns and villages wtc, but if what you are saying is true( and i have no reason to think it isn't) there will be a lot of files to change.


Avala, you are right, i think 16x is more than enough. now at least i can have the lines in my cockpit not stepping when i turn the plane and the planes themselves look 100% better.

update

now i find that with the new DLL's and the lod mod, i see some objects at much greater distances, also, i have hardly any noticeable differences in frame rates when flying over large populated cities.
this thread has helped a lot. thanks again to all who posted.
