OK, here’s HKKI for me
In cockpit, I can see the tower
In drone view behind the plane, I can’t - just the light
It must be right on the cusp of being visible. Here is where I can first see it from the drone
and here’s the plane behind me (just rotated 180) so actually it’s odd I can see it from the cockpit but not the drone when at the windscreen position
This is all with 200/200 on the sliders
If I edit the config file to put 200 on the terrain LOD and 400 on the object LOD I get these:
And if I drone up a bit above the runway:
So upping object LOD makes it visible
Strongly suggest you try that - I doubt it will have much impact on FPS and is easy to do
EDIT - with object LOD 400, the tower is still visible this far back and I’m getting 62 FPS
EDIT/EDIT - so you know, I had to see what happens when I put object LOD to 900
In cockpit - can definitely see the tower better - it appears more solid
Drone default behind the plane doesn’t look any better than 400
How far back can we still see it? Here’s how far:
Quite a long way then!
What about FPS? I hear you ask…62
So pretty much zero impact. Now I appreciate this isn’t a very busy scene, but I think you should be able to push the LOD for object up quite a bit
Give it a try if you’ve not done so already
