teknotel 1 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 So people go into the ground at like 200m +... Is this server enforced or is there anything I can do about it? https://plays.tv/video/5c153eafef17722269/terrain-texture Like this is an ok example as you can see some of the guy right, but like yesterday I was fighting with friends at an objective and there is a guy 100% at the objective, I am perched 250m away overlooking it. We want to go in but no one can see the guy sop my friend runs in and then I just see the guy stand up out of the ground in front of me and start shooting..... Is there anything I can do to stop this effect? I have £2600 tower I put together about 3 months ago with a 1080ti in it. Its top of the range. Thank you for any help or advice.

Setavai 42 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 it still happens to some degree even with terrain on ultra, though much less noticable, its the games way to represent your target being obscured by grass, without having to render it in at such large distances (which would kill your fps) so instead, it sinks them into the ground slightly, its just an arma thing you gotta keep in mind, at ultra you should be able to see atleast part of their body though 1 Link to post Share on other sites

No, grass will always render around you if you have terrain on any higher than low setting Link to post Share on other sites

Larry Melone 21 Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Try to create a new arma profile since these settings are probably not loaded/saved properly. Link to post Share on other sites

Setavai 42 Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 if you arent rendering in grass after 100-200 meters, then yes, it would start sinking them into the ground it doesnt do it at closer ranges because it assumes grass is rendered at those distances (which the server lets you disable at low terrain settings) its also partially the map though, for instance, if you look at a hill very far away, you'll notice things like rocks and trees are floating above the hill when you're on low terrain settings, and the same goes with enemy players, on low settings, you sometimes see enemies that are in fact behind the hill, and you shouldnt even be able to see, and cant hit either, but if you turn your terrain settings to ultra, you'll suddenly see that what you were looking at was in fact obscured by the top of the hill.. basically this is the game rendering things less accurately to try and reduce the impact it has on your fps, its not a great way of doing it but its what we have to deal with unfortunately also in your video it is indeed quite severe, part of it could be because that specific spot has quite tall grass, and to simulate that, the game sinks him quite deep into the ground, combine that with the low terrain detail setting and you might see people completely dissapearing Link to post Share on other sites
