Author Topic: Trees disapear at 1500ft....again (Read 427 times)

This issue was fixed over a year ago, and now its back, and this makes dive bombing impossible except for fixed targets. Trees completely, 100% POOF GONE at 1500ft above the deck, no settings will fix it, nothing. You can see trees out in front for miles, but try and dive bomb....there is no point of reference and trees pop up like magic.

This is double frustrating because this bug was fixed forever ago (well over a year), and now its back.

Ok guys, this lack of response is not giving me any reasons to think this is going to be fixed. I have asked here, and sent two email to support. I understand your working your butts off on TOD, however I would appreciate a response.

ALF, they rarely respond. That does NOT mean it wont be fixed or that they didnt read it.

Besides, display of trees highly depends on your system specs and graphic detail settings........

Changing the way trees appear would require rebuilding the terrain tiles and resetting the LODs. As far as I can tell, that hasn't happened in over a year, maybe two.

You said you've tried all your settings but did you check your level of detail settings, .... Those don't show in the GUI.

I actually find the support at HT is typically well above the norms in the industry, which is one reason I am a little frustrated. But ya know I hadnt thought of the F1-F4 thing, since I leave it on max all the time. Ill have to give that a go later.

Also ALF, have you tried going through the stickies in Tech Support again?

Try cleaning up your system, maybe this will give the small edge of performance needed for the trees to stop the dissappearence thingy. Since i am not aware of HT changing anything in tree display i think the reoccurence of the problem might lie in your sys performance.

ALF, you could post your spec (dxdiag) here, and maybe a few of the "geeks" can give you some "tweaks" to trim out your system. I have by no means a "superbox" and have no trouble with trees. Fun is flying in LW, getting 6-7 La's to chase ya down in and thru the trees to see how many proxies you can get

WOOT!

Got it working again. Had to do a fresh install, seems for some reason the F1-F4 keys were not working and it defaulted to med view or something. Im not sure what the heck happened, but at least Im back to ground pounding soon. I had already checked my setting but apparently something got fubared at the last update on my system....look out GVs...your buttox are mine again. Things are officially no longer Janky.

thanks
