wildblueyonder Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Folks, How can I extend the terrain range to take advantage of the AI or photo real scenery? My FSX settings are at max. Is there a way to change the config to accomplish this? Thanks wildblueyonder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSkorna Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 It's the LOD number you want to change in the FSX.cfg file. Try 6.4. Please note that if you then make any other slider changes in FSX, this value will default back to 4.5. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cianpars Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Assuming you mean the LOD_RADIUS setting, 6.5 works pretty well for me and generally seems to be considered a safe tweak for most. I've had it up to 8.5 and it looks great, but tends to cause crashes when using anything other than photoscenery (especially ORBX). It really depends on your system and other settings how high you can go. Also remember that the cfg file will default it if you make any other changes in the fsx scenery and graphics menus (edit - sorry Jim already said that). p.s. - I think you can fiddle around with the filtering and mipmapping to improve things, but can't remember offhand what and how, but you may want to explore these areas too).
