General Question Orbiter Sim LandSAT: Increase Texture Draw Distance?

[Scruce]

Ok, I installed OrbiterSimLandSAT061219_Earth_L10 for Orbiter 2010P1.

My question is, is there any way to increase the draw distance of the better Earth tiles (the LandSAT ones).

In this one, I have highlighted where the edge of the draw distance is (the Earth tile):

This photo highlights it more obviously:

Help on this would be appreciated. :tiphat:

In the launchpad, go to extra>visualization parameters>planet rendering options. Here you can change some settings

Much better solution than increasing patch/tile draw distance is to download "Earth L8.zip" from Orbiter Sim LandSAT textures download page. It's low-resolution (levels 1-8) version of the textures you installed.

Download Level 8? :huh:

I have downloaded Level 10...

...as you can see above. Surely Level 10 is a higher resolution level than Level 8?

You could try http://downloadorbitersim.com/?page_id=42 Level 11-14.

You don't understand. You need levels 1-8 installed along with levels 9-10 of the same set.

Level 10 textures is just level 9 and 10 of the textures. Levels 1-8 from your picture are from different texture set, and that's the reason for seams in transition between level 8 and 9.

Ah, I did misunderstand. Thanks for clearing that up. :tiphat:
