As our processors get more and more powerful, CPU and GPU and as long as IL2 remains compatible we will be able to cover some of the islands with trees and give them a more realistic look without loosing to much framerate.
This means adding thousands of objects. On an Island like Wake it is doable. On larger ones like Guadalcanal it is still a problem. But we can cover some patches at least.
Unfortunately there is an effect of the IL2 engine that kills this. You may have excellent visibility like with Landgeom=3, but all the objects further then some distance (much much too short about 3 miles will simply disappear. You get this horrible effect when flying were trees and forests that I have laid out pop on barren ground.
Come on. Do a landgeom=4 position and have all the objects just stay.
Gold.
