A toggle in addon options so it doesn't affect aircraft view distance would be amazingly helpful. I will just manually turn it off when using aircraft for now.

Use one or the other, not both together.

This seems to be at times affecting my view distance settings when I am in an aircraft thus interrupting my view distance that I set in CH View Distance specifically for aircraft. I have to hop out of my helicopter, turn this mod off in the video settings and hop back in my helicopter to fix it for example.

Mea culpa Dude
I'll have a look tomorrow and will update the mod

Server key is missing in newest version, could you please add it?

Turn the debug off

What little hud thing?

is there any way to keep this mod but remove the little hud thing

Thanks for this mod

It isn't, no. You will need to set the minimum about 400 and set the fps to a manageable number like 40

I'm not sure if i'm using this mod correctly. For example, im playing this scenario that requires a uav that circles around a mission area around 1200 meters high. So I set automatic view distance on and set desired fps to match my monitors refresh rate (144) I then set my minimum and maximum to nothing, then slowly inch the minimum up until the npc's and building pop into view clearly while zoomed out. This is at around 1500 minimum and 2300 maximum. with this method im getting excellent frames, however im not sure if this is the correct use of this mod.

After the update, I felt a noticeable lag when using the telescope. I didn't feel any lag before.

Update v2.0 has been released
Please read the changelog and place your feedback in the according thread.

Have fun playing Arma3 and may the frames be with you

@GokuGod
The mod adjust viewDistance according to how much fps are over or under the set target (amongst other factors).
If you use an external fps limiter (or VSync), the target needs to be set to a lower value.

@Nullified
Doesn't work doesn't help.
Please provide as much information as possible when reporting any issues.
And use the Bug reports and feedback Thread in the discussions section to do so.

great mod but for some reason the view distance dosnt always update (if i set the mod fps limit -2fps from my indicated rivatunerfps) i have to change the mod fps limit for it to start working, (im using a frame limiter set to 82 and mod fps to 80) i have to set it first to 60 and then it starts working, if i dont do that the game uses the default view distance. when it works its awesome !
after some testing when i lowered the MOD fps to 75 it works as intended,
amazing mod!

tldr,
FPS limiter 82, mod FPS limit 80 = dosnt work
FPS limiter 82, mod FPS limit 75 = work

Can't use this mod, game is unplayable.

Would it be possible to add a option to adjust the ratio of object to terrain view distance? I tend to try and keep them the exact same so that the fog hides the fact that buildings / trees are disappearing. Otherwise very cool mod.

[ENG] The mod is very good and necessary in principle. But I don't have enough reaction speed, i.e. it wouldn't be bad if it were possible to adjust the speed of changing the viewing distance.
[RUS] Мод очень хороший и нужный в принципе. Но мне не хватает скорости реакции, т.е было бы не плохо если бы можно было бы регулировать скорость изменения дистанции обзора.

No thank you

Thanx for quick answer. Also for your hard work. :)

That's okay, the game will load/read the pbo, which contains the same files as the folder, only that the config.cpp and ui_controls.cpp in the folder are not binarized into the config.bin file that is basically unreadable (in case someone wants to mod this addon or simply wants to have a closer look).

in the folder of addons, there is pbo and folder also, hope it will not effect the mod

thanks for keep updating this mod

If the server Admin sets a global Viewdistance limit via ACE3, then AVD will automatically adhere to it, the players do not need to do anything on their end.

ACE's View Distance feature should be turned off when AVD is used and vice versa

@Kilo
Hi, could you please giving more infos about how AVD will work with ACE's View Distance settings?
https://ace3.acemod.org/wiki/feature/viewdistance

Done

can the "minimum" max view distance be set to lower than 2000? if you get what i mean

@ElzearContelly2 - https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3265021784

Is it possible to only decrease the object view distance? With my rig, I can play massive missions with 10km render distance if I decrease the object view distance to 1-2km in large firefights. Can this mod decrease only the object view distance, and only when that hits a minimum then also decrease the terrain render distance?

it shows up in options but doesnt actually do anything for my view distance, it's still set on the value of the vanilla slider

I get stutters everytime it updates the distances. By stutters I mean lenghty freezes v.v

My font burned out 😔

Ask the Admins to add the key to their server so users can join with this mod.

What's the point of this mode if can't join any game?

Thank you so damn much

I am trying to diagnose framerate issues Im having with the Normandy map - is this mod known to have any issues with the Normandy Map from Spearhead?

Thank you for the update! Shows in video settings correctly now. 🖤

Works when enabled in the video settings.

does this still work, doesnt seem to be doing anything for me

Must have

This mod disables the drop down menu for the "Water Reflections" option in video settings. You have to unload the mod, change "Water Reflections", then load it back.

got this for my grandad hes been fine since ;)

doesn't work on the server

This mod is only client side

Clientside?
