Lod, objects and distance

[AlexRazor]

Hi. I have map with some objects and I have place with big rocks there. Is it possible to make view distance of this rocks very far? In a way like terrains, houses and etc. loaded, i mean from very big distance. I already used engineSetModelLODDistance and tweaked setFogDistance + setFarClipDistance. What can i do to increase distance? I thinked about gluing some of rocks in single object.

Atm they are loaded like this:

[Pirulax]

there is a function called

setElementStreamable()

But use this function because the object on which you use this function will be always streamed, thus decreasing FPS.

[Pirulax]

setFogDistance()

Is only for removing fog.

setFarClipDistance()

Does nothing too, because the objects in that are are rendered.

But I know that there is a function that is used in such case, but I dont know its name, sorry.

Thanks for help! This two functions doing one thing for me: they hiding bad view distance of small objects by lowering view distance of lods and etc(farclip) and making it smoother(fog).

So i actually tried it and it doesn't work for me.

Why?

[Tails]

You need to make a separate LOD object for every object.

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/SetLowLODElement

Here's an example:

local obj = createObject(id, x, y, z, rx, ry, rz)
local lodObj = createObject(id, x, y, z, rx, ry, rz, true)
setLowLODElement(obj, lodObj)
engineSetModelLODDistance(id, 300)

Oh, thanks!
