Problems with green hell 2

[hawk2009]

Hello,

I´m new here and i hope i found the right place for my problem. I installed wov and patched it with the latest update. then i wanted to try some mods and installed vietnam_tile_repaint_v1.0. After that i installed green hell 2 at medium detail. I was disapointed about the uppopping trees in such a short distance. I read the readme and found out that there is a option to push up the distance of the uppopping trees. I just have to modify the DetailMeshSize= in the flightengine.ini. Now there is my problem: there is no flightengine.ini in my flight folder. Where can i find this flightengine.ini or must i download something to integrate this flightengine.ini in the flight folder. Thanks for the help.

you would need to extract the flightengine.ini from the flightdata.cat using the cat extractor tool you can download from this site.

 

instructions are in the old knowledgebase

 

once extracted put the file in the flight folder to make it work

Thanks for your help. It works. I made the following changes.

 

[NormalSceneClip]

FarClipDistance=35000.0

NearClipDistance=249.9

 

and

 

[unlimitedDetailOption]

HorizonDistance=75000.0

DetailMeshSize=14

DetailLevel=1

WaterEffect=2

NoiseTexture=1

MaxTextureRes=-1

 

but now ive got anoter problem. At the intersection of detailed territory (where the trees and buildings pop up) and undetailed territorry the water (especially the ocean) is flickering which is very annoying. Can you give me a solution for this problem. Thanks for your help. Playing with modifications really improves this game but i have no experience in it.

Shimmering you mean?

 

does changing the Anti Aliasing/Anist Filtering settings on your graphics card change anything?

 

Are the trees flickering?

I am not a native speaker but i thing flickering is the right word. The trees are not flickering. Its just the water. Within the hight detailed area around the plane the water looks nice. But at the beginning of the undetailed area the water is flickering. I took a picture, maybe this can help to find the problem. The water above the plane is flickering. Thanks for your fast responses.

Hi,

i followed your advice but it doesn´t work. The flickering water does not disappear. I have scaled down the high detailled area to meshsize=6 to clarify the problem. Your turn

Last try. Nobody here who could help?

Hey Hawk,

 

Take a look at the suggestions in the link below. I had to use all of them to cure the same problem on my system. You may have to play with the settings a bit. I did, and now green hell 2 works just fine.
