A question about trees & veg..

Recommended Posts

So I was reading a thread on another forum in which someone posting with a great knoweledge of the engine posted -

"Your 'tree' viewGeometry screens are from ARMA 1 ...

since then there was ARMA 2 and OA ... smile.gif

and BAF and PMC trees are like 5 generations ahead of A2 smile.gif"

Now from the whole business of streaming .PBO files from a virtual ram disk, Dayz seems to stream the A2 Trees / Plants etc etc.. If you have BAF and PMC can you make Dayz use their PBO.s instead, is it a simple cut and paste from one folder to another? would it give a more optimised expierence of the game? cheers..

DayZ uses whatever trees the original map used so you'd have to alter the Chernarus-map to use the BAF / PMC-trees but they would probably look very out of place and only people owning those expansions could play that altered map unless the Lite-versions also contain the trees and such in low-res.

It MIGHT give a performance-boost if the models are better optimised and meant to be used in the same amount as the originals, those pine-forests are big but otherwise they might even impact performance even more :)
