anyone know of a Oblivion infinite view distance mod or one that increases the grass/tree view distance? I know there is one for Morrowind but I don't feel like installing it..
Old Post but to anyone else looking for this I have a solution. Had the same problem, thought I was never gunna get a quick fix for this, let alone fix it myself. XD (I'm a noob you see)
I 'Couldn't find a fix anywhere, yet can't stand buildings popping up out of nowhere, totally ruins the atmosphere...
Anyway after the internet didn't provide I found my own tweek messing around in the Oblivion.ini
go to your oblivion.ini (should be in my documents/my games/oblivion/):
Find uGridsToLoad=5
Change value to 7 or 9 even numbers will be raised 1 and made odd... Here's the catch this will make you see buildings and scenery huge amount further yet will completely mess up water reflections (reflected sky appears where it shouldn't) you may what to turn water reflections off. I could put up with it but I prefer them off, however its totally worth it in my view, the reflections get "Stair Casey" anyway...
If anyone has a fix for this that would be cool, perhaps there's a downloadable water mod would suffer a better fate?
why only 7-9? The higher the number the further you see buildings and other scenery but the worse water graphics appear. Past ten not just reflections the water surface its self is completely messed up, vast squares of the surface are invisible. 9 really is plenty though, I'm so happy with 9.
Also some say
uGridDistantTreeRange=15
uGridDistantCount=25
(found directly above my mod)
Put up to 45 on both has the effect my mod does. It doesn't but It seems to render better with that on and it may need to be upped for my mod to work...
