Sparse Autogen and Bridges

[Guest]

Does anyone know of a tweak that would allow bridges to be displayed at the 'sparse' autogen setting?Personally, I find the building & tree density adequate at the 'sparse' autogen setting, but I find that the bridges disappear as one reduces the setting from normal to sparse.Since I am running a lower end system, I need all the frames per second I can get, but would like to see the bridges.AMD Duron 1.3 GHZ512MB PC133 RAMGeForce FX 5200 128MB VideoSoundblaster Live!

You can change the settings in the terrain.cfg file. Backup your original first in a safe place before making any changes. These listings are toward the bottom of the file. Under the bridge listings, change the value for MinAutogenDensity= from 20 to 10. -----------------------// test bridge data[Autogen.1.0.0]AutoObject="0d9aaae37h,0469438b7h,0ed19d2aah,0101a5306h"AutoObjectEnd="03216f40bh,0434d0f54h,0a0732c9bh,0087fedfeh"ObjectSize=30ObjectEndSize=30ExclusionWidth=30ClipData=0Offset=00PlaceOnWater=1Density=100MinAutogenDensity=10 << from 20 >>// 1 lane bridges//Covered Dirt Road Bridge - gen_bridge06[Autogen.7.0.0]AutoObject="0c9775c1fh,048561e3eh,0ad3416a4h,0b696c0efh"AutoObjectEnd="0b2b05be7h,04b927dafh,0f150928fh,050cc149fh"ObjectSize=9.71ObjectEndSize=16.96ExclusionWidth=30ClipData=0Offset=00PlaceOnWater=1Density=100MinAutogenDensity=10 << from 20 >>----------------------Change the values for // test bridge dataand then for all the bridge listings from// 1 lane bridgesthru//Railroad Bridge 2 (aka gen_bridge05)18 listings in all.Kurt M
