Grass is broken.

Hi. Grass either needs to not disappear with distance, or be disabled.

As it is right now, all it does is make it so prone players can't see while still being visible to anyone outside of like 30 meters.

And, yes, I am mad.

Edit: You can't disable grass in DayZ. It's locked on.

You can disable it by lowering the terrain detail (I think). Haven't tested it though.

Am I the only one who ever noticed that when you look at a distant field with someone walking on it you see that they're about knee deep in the ground if there is a grass texture on it. When they crawl they are almost completely hidden. I believe this is implemented to compensate lack of visible grass in the distance.

This, although it is actually an error, it pretty much makes up for the lack of grass. Common error serves a purpose! :)

Anyhow, no grass is fine. If you want flat ground, wiggle around, move forward a little bit, do something, don't just whine, WORK FOR IT!

I don't think that this is an error because the effect only occurs on grass, never on a hard surface.

It's not a error, it's a feature.

Grass layer was added in some early updates to arma2.

But I think that the layer is too smooth so prone player is still too visible against it. Or maybe it's just my graphic settings?

No grass at all is just terrible, I hate the servers that disable it.
