my extended distance scaler is maxed does this work as long as I just don't mess with that setting any more or do I need to turn off extended distance for this to work proper?
OK so the answer is it doesn't matter the game visually will fill the bar in the settings so as long as the settings aren't touched this change will work. I have however found a Issue with this mod, it gets rid of the smooth transitions the game has built in so any object LOD that would normally occur at a certain distance, e.g. reflections, or world object will transition extremely rough. Imagine GTA 4 when distance is set higher than 37, it looses that fade in and out so more distant objects may load in higher quality, as the images of this mod suggest, but it hurts the transitional properties the game has built in.
You are not missing anything. Previously, you had to use many files and change many parameters for this mode. With the Enhanced version, all the LOD information is now collected under a single parameter. We can change all LOD and draw distance information by changing a single number.I don't think a mod necessarily needs a difficult installation or dozens of files to be considered a mod.
