Title: View distance in MP
Post by: cliff on 20 Sep 2003, 18:11:52

Would it be possible to change the viewdistance in MP in any way?
My mates all have machines that support at least 2000 meters view distance, so it would be nice in Coop-play to see a bit further....

You can indeed. What is needed is to run the "setViewDistance <somenumber>" on all machines.

My suggestion is that you use Joltan's "View distance negotiation for MP missions". You can find that under "Script snippets", "Misc" section in the Editor's Depot here on OFPEC.

Question 2:

Ok, the viewdistance is no problem to change i MP for all players, but whatabout terrain detail?

IÂ'd like to play on "high" setting, but I donÂ't know of any way to change this setting in the editor.

Playing MP in broken terrain like that would be really great.
