fade in the distance
« on: February 08, 2004, 09:58:13 pm »
In everquest when stuff is far away it\'s quality goes down, because you can\'t see it that well anyway.  it cuts down on lag in open areas.

sorry if i compare this game to everquest, i\'v just been playing it for quite a few years.

I\'d bet the DEVs are incorporating A LOT of ideas like this from EQ.

Yes this is planned. It\'s called LOD (level of detail) and EQ really didn\'t pioneer this obvious drawing technique :)
