RL1881 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Hello all, I've had ftx global base for 6 months now, and after a reinstall of Windows I've started to notice buildings and trees coming out of the ground if I zoom in...obviously this is my LOD Radius which I have checked in my config, and is set by default at 6.5 miles. I was wondering if all of this is normal and if I was to increase my LOD Radius, would there be a loss of fps etc. Thank you The picture uploaded upside down.

elmucki Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 you can not increase it further if i am not mistaken. moving the slider all the way to the right is the max setting. anything larger by manual editing will not do you any good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fltsimguy Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Not sure what to say here yet. Default LOD Radius is 4.5. LOD_RADIUS=4.500000 You can increase this to 6.5 but it's not advisable. Best to try increments of 0.5, so try 5.0, 5.5 for instance. Has a big impact on VAS which can then lead to OOMs. I'm not sure what you are getting at with things coming out of the ground by zooming in.

Nick Cooper Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I expect that you are seeing autogen buildings. This is normal. Trees are also available if you move the correct slider. Usually, a screen shot is taken using the PC, you can find a guide here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RL1881 Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 Nick, It also happens with trees aswell which I am guessing is normal..I was away and not able to access my pc. My LOD radius in my config (P3D V3) is set to 6.5 miles and I haven't changed it? Fltsimguy..it is just buildings and trees being loaded by coming out of the ground at my LOD Radius and I was just wondering if this was normal or not? Many Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many Thanks Once again I was thinking something different. But I will say this - when in the FSX forum I am thinking FSX not P3D. So obviously this can result in some confusion.

RL1881 Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 Hello all, Sorry for not mentioning that...is it not p3d aswell...just to clear things up, the way that the buildings and trees are loading through the ground is completely normal and this is happening at my LOD Radius at 6.5 miles, which you wouldn't advise increasing due to OOM's and memory issues. Many Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
