Dynamic View Distance

Description
Dynamic View Distance uses the player's altitude and custom settings to determine terrain view distance. Allowing for a seamless transition from default view distance at ground level to the entire map at high altitudes.

Demonstration:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZWpRlI3Uv8

This mod has no affect on performance at ground level but as you might expect, performance decreases with altitude over the Dynamic View Distance starting altitude (default 500m). Users can cap the view distance and max altitude to counter this but view distance cannot increase in arma without decreasing framerate. Please only use this mod if you can afford or are prepared to lose performance at high altitudes in order to enjoy the spectacular view.

Dynamic View Distance is also compatible with CH View Distance.

Please share any issues/suggestions.


Recommended Mods :

- CH View Distance (for object view distance)

Is it possible to set maximum altitude lower than 5km?

@snowy turn on the base distance and then set it to 3k, you can see MORE than enough and it hardly effects FPS, im running on a 1660 super if that gives any info, nothing hot but i can run an average 30-40 frames even in a gun fight in a city.

word of advice to anyone who uses this mod, it makes antistasi run at like 20 fps permanently because when you open up the garage it renders a bunch of the map.

Is this mod map dependent? I try this on south asia map at 10.000m and still I cant see further than 25km :/

@Ridentus
the mod is completly clientside (clients will require a copy downloaded). however it does use the standard mod settings menu so you should be able to have the server force settings on people.

This looks great. How does this sync over in MP? For example, do all players get the same values when on the ground or in the air? Really tempted to add this to our server, but want to make sure everyone is uniform beforehand, as we're relying on a fixed 3500 view distance on our server.
