Tree distance fix is no longer compatible.

It looks like we will have to learn to live with a lower distance LOD in the future, is that a strategy from Asobo to be able to run the game on X-Box maybe?

It'll get fixed. The Community has devs; (Tree Distance Fix Blog being one of them) who are better than Asobo at what they do so whatever they throw at us we'll beat it.

Thanks for posting this.  I knew something was wrong and thought I might have deleted something.  I'll be glade when the mods get this one figured out.  Asobo really needs to quite breaking so much with each update.

If your following it please let us know when this is fixed.  If I find out first I'll post it.

I found another similar mod that has been updated, but I have not had time to try it out yet.

This really should have been addressed in Sim Update 3. The fact that the mod got broke implies that some work was done in this area of the sim. Asobo spent time putting Orbit and Pacifica Airlines into the sim rather than addressing something like this.... go figure! Even worse when you think that it was working ok on in the launch version. Asobo broke it.

Anyway, cheers to the modders! This sim would be a much lesser beast were it not for them.

But I heard that Asobo was going to work on smaller trees and add more! Maybe in a future version we won't have to go looking for a Mod anymore ....

I wish I could believe this.

I've been using this mod for several weeks and works flawlessly (the same mod mentioned before by @Ixoye). It was updated today to look for compatibility with Sim Update 3:

Haven't had the chance to test it with yesterday's update, but I suppose it'll continue to work very well.

I tested it this morning flying over Washington State and it's working just fine.

It is ridiculous having to rely on a mod to increase the distance of tree's being drawn. Or buildings. 

I wonder if we're in for another Q&A session thats like an hour in parliament. "Just tell them what they want to hear, it'll keep them quiet and off our backs for a while longer"

I think is the time to make a fuss in today's Q&A about the autogen and trees draw distance? 😄

downloaded seems to be working

Go for it, but, I cant see it making much difference if I am honest. We are nearly 7-8 months in from release now. To me, it is still in Beta. And the Analogies of 'well FSX only had one update blah blah'. Sure it did, however the main sim core worked as it should. Things operated as they should.

Oh well, at least I can get an Xbox controller out and fly orbit airlines from outside view at 30,000 feet and view my contrails. Great. 

 

To me the Q&A's are just people full of talking hot air. And sometimes they look very uneasy answering that Jorg fellow too. I assume he's the Microsoft side.

I've found the Q&As to be utterly pointless ever since the "what lightning bug?" and the subsequent "we can't reproduce it" which begged belief at the time.

Whilst I'll watch if I'm bored as sometimes there's good tidbits of information, on the whole it's a lot of Talk with no Substance, purely an attempt at the marketing strategy of "see we do listen and respond".

Hi Ed,

Which folder are you using?

I'm currently checking out Trees_Distance_Draw_Fix(100-150)

Update: I just tested this mod and with the blog mod I could see trees way out there. This one doesn't work for me.

ASOBO did it again. They manage to ruin a nice looking sim. Are they ever going to learn. I'm getting sick and tired of their excuses. I hope they go under.
