Increase Grass draw distance | Forums

[andysonofbob]

Hello there,

I am trying to improve the ingame level graphics by increasing the draw distance of the grasses.

Currently the grasses seem to be drawn to about 20 m in front of the player; this is fine until you walk onto an open space or hill where you can see the grass / no grass boundary.

I would like to increase the drawdistance to about 100 m as i think this wouldnt kill my FPSs too cronically.

I have tried to adjust the MaxViewDistRatio for the grasses in Sandbox. I have used the following values: .5, 1, 4 and 100. I then saved, exit and load up the level (Research) from the campain menu. No difference. This is odd because i can see a change in the sandbox window.

I have obviously turned off the files read only status...

What am I doing wrong, any ideas?

thanks

Working in sandbox but not in game?

Try 'export to engine'.... ctrl + E in sandbox...save and exit.

Load up the full game and see if the view distance now works.
