Camera distance-view problems

[Wayshan]

Hello Hive, I have some problems with my projects and I hope you can help me! I have two different problems.

FIRST PROBLEM is with one tree object. It is visible from any distance, which looks really weird especially in cinematics. Can I change "distance view" of this object in editor somehow? And if so, where?

SECOND PROBLEM is with camera. When I go with camera too much away (high) from the surface the terrain begins to disappear into fog (it's dark, you can't recognize anything). Can I somehow set the camera would have longer full quality view? (Not just for this direction)

Thanks for your time and help!!

For the first problem:

Check up that model with Magos Model Editor, look at materials and see if any of those have Unfogged checked, if yes then just uncheck it.
You can import it again after that in the editor to fix the problem.

For the second problem:

Just increase the far-z in fog at map options, you should get visibility after that.

I have another question - can I somehow change the distance, from which I can see object? I mean ingame.

Camera - Set distance to target?

or do you mean that you have to be close to see the object?

Yea the second one. I have lake made by 4 models of water, but it's so big, that when unit comes to coast player see only one part of the lake and it looks really weird

How does it look like?

I suppose that you see the sea until the fog comes.

Object visibility

This is original look at the lake in map editor, it is formed by 4 objects of water

However when unit come to coast, it's so big, you see only the nearest piece of water and that creates really weird and ugly view (I highlighted the problematic borders of this one object by red)

Increase the unit's line of sight...
That is as far as I know the only way.
There must be something that adds fog from a distance of the player's camera so you cannot see infinitely far, but idk.

Yea, I was afraid of this, that you can't modify this aspect of objects... Nevermind, thanks anyway!
