Dom's View Distance Mod

Description
Dom's View Distance Mod

This clientside mod provides a lightweight solution to changing view distances for all categories of vehicles. This mod was created with performance in mind, therefore its scripts should have a negligible impact on performance by using event handlers.

Features
  • Breaks down view distance and terrain grid into the following categories; foot, ship, car, rotary and other air
  • Works with UGV's and UAV's sorting them to the appropriate category
  • Uses a CBA keybind to allow customisation of the key to open the menu (default backslash)
  • A CBA addon option to disable the mod
  • A CBA addon option for server admins to select the max view distance and terrain grid clients can use
  • A CBA addon option to automatically match object distance to view distance when changing values on the sliders
  • A CBA addon and menu slider to boost the current view distance when using a scope or zooming in
  • A CBA addon option and CBA keybinds to adjust view distance on the move without entering any menu
  • Three CBA keybinds to allow instant changing of view distance to values defined in the addon options
  • All settings are saved into users profile
  • Mod is lightweight with fully event handled integration, utilising no infinite loops.

@sagemodedomi Another mod may be competing to use the same key. Check your CBA key binds and add on options for ‘Dom’s View Distance Mod’

My backslash doesn't open the menu. My salute is bound to a different key as well so I'm not sure what is causing it to not work.

@ToNieFilip please join my discord and I can help you - this mod does not touch graphics. It only changes view distance and terrain grid, nothing else, the server you were playing on could have code to change your graphics settings

When i installed it and joined a server i got Counter strike 1.6 graphics instantly, 1 fps.

But it did touch them.

@ToNieFilip My mod doesn't touch graphics settings at all, so I think you may have a problem elsewhere

unable to config when joining serwer. set automatically to lowest graphic and lags the game out. 2/10

Hi @Zantza, I've just pushed an update as requested so you can no longer accidentally open the menu when in zeus
