That's to do with your graphics settings. The more further you go the less detailed it becomes. You can change this in the settings I think.

Are you talking about Rct3?....because this is ShowSim 3D forum...
I'll move this to the proper place. And yes, you if it is Rct3 you have to check the settings. --------------------  claudio3:global mod:contact me: claudio@vpyro.com Signal to Noise/Colossal - released: http://files.rctpyro.com/index.php?dir=ilyxr%2F Dance of Fire - Released An Evening with the Masters- RELEASED |

Yes it is draw distance. If you go to settings theres options for it. I think you can pick the amount of detail you want from a more longer distance there. I'll try to get a pic on soon.

i dont have this "draw distance" or LOD, i have all the 'scenery', 'track', 'supports' etc.
I know it's because i use RCT3 Vanilla, but if i use wild, my fireworks will get buggy. I have patch 2, i got told NOT to install patch 3. I have something with 'Imposter distance' and 'alpha landscape....' Please help me. Save me

You have to have it, it comes in the vanilla version.
Look in the "eye" icon (graphic settings),is called detail level and draw distance...and a little below is "geometry imposter distance" -------------------- claudio3:global mod:contact me: claudio@vpyro.com Signal to Noise/Colossal - released: http://files.rctpyro.com/index.php?dir=ilyxr%2F Dance of Fire - Released An Evening with the Masters- RELEASED |

Geometry imposter has nothing to do with particles, it just affects scenery items.

QUOTE (Whiteout @ Jul 1 2008, 11:43 PM) Geometry imposter has nothing to do with particles, it just affects scenery items. What is the right one to tweak ? EDIT: This is the problem: The stars are 'pulsing' three times like this, the other time it's not even visible.  Settings window  I really need help here.
