Default LOD change

I have Clod settings figured out so that I get a good framerate over land. However, I had to reduce my resolution to 1600x900. The only problem I have is the level of detail on other aircraft at certain ranges. At long range, they are readily visible. As the range decreases, the LOD changes, and they become nearly invisible until they move a few hundred meters closer.

Is there any way to improve the transition? Thanks!

This patch addresses visibility issues by adding reflection from aircraft wings and glass.

Thanks, but I already have that patch installed. It doesn't help with the specific issue I'm talking about.

Your system may need to be upgraded it is a very demanding game requiring a 1.5 card

I see the same LOD problem when I try it on my friend's machine with a 3gb card. It seems like a holdover issue that existed in 1946 as well.

My personal opinion on that is either the monitor or the pilot of original game. Not meant to insult anyone, but I have not had that problem so it could not be the game, but since the rewrite it is now a problem with the game.
