I have 5 settings with sliders in workshop after I have hit the graphics button..

Aircraft detail.
Terrain detail.
Scenery detail.
Effects quality.
Cloud quality.

where is the object density please..?

You have gone to far. Those sliders are in the Graphics Config setting, the "Ground Object Density" is on the regular Workshop screen above the grey Graphics Config button. It has 3 settings, Low, Medium, High, and default is normally Medium.

Perhaps I'm mistaken, but if you didn't know to find the object density, you might be running the Default setting all along which could be why you deemed it needed to install all those mods from the beginning.

PS . . I run it on High with 60 FPS

With My XP machine it was on Low with 35 FPS

Like 2 seperate games, which is why I made that statement

Ah right.. I knew where the 'Ground Object Density' setting is, and had it set on 'medium' from the start.. You mentioned a slider and I couldn't see one for it.. thought that was what you were talking about.

Uncleal:
I'm a little confused again. You have mentioned three time above about Trooper117 using "Mods" and implying it effected his Terrain Details or Scenery Details.

So a couple of questions:
(1) what mods is he using (since I do not see him mentioning any mods) and
(2) what mods out there effect either the "Terrain Details" or "Scenery Details" in OFF3 ???

Try reading some other threads than this

He boasts about JSGME ( what ever that is ) the Grand Sound mod as well

Do you find it a little strange that he can encounter ripping and Jaggies running a GFX570

Yet my GTX480 can handle OFF FLAT OUT . . . However it's plain Vanilla

I said somewhere . . .you're doing the testing. . if those terms are acceptable to you, FINE . . I just don't accept them here

Uncleal, don't take offense, but you're filled with too many dogmas.
If you had a problem with a mod 20 years ago, then all mods are bad. That's the way you think.
The word "mod" must cause the same feeling as the word "liberal" on you.

Frankly that all depends on the many settings as well as other gear in the machine. For example:

What resolution?
What are all of the sliders set at?
What is your CPU clocked at? How much RAM?
Are the jaggies just from not having some form of AA turned on or are they from looking at the edges of the screen when you turn your head with TrackIR?

There so many more variables to the performance of OFF than just the mods. To be honest, turning mods on or completely off, I find no difference in my frame rates or the quality of detail. It's changing the other stuff that impacts that.

Uncleal:
It is interesting that you comment on mods that you have never tried, but yet you say that they are bad. You might want to try some of these mods before you say if that are bad or not, otherwise you are just voicing an unknown opinion.

I use the JSGME tool for years on a lot of other games with zero problems. And with this tool, I can install or remove any mod installed into a game with it by just one click of the mouse button.

I can also tell you that when I try mods, I test the FPS with and without the mod installed , and to date NO OFF mod has had a single FPS effect on the game.

You really need to check what you are talking about before you slam it with your comments.

Not really . . I've never had a bad time with a mod . . I've seen it happen to many others . . I remember in Red Baron III. . . I flew a SPAD with Twin 20mm Cannons, rather effective Gotha Medicine . . but after a while it becomes old. . as I remember I ran that 3 seperate times. Problem was that was the only aircraft available

That's where you're mistaken, the word Liberal. . . always says . . . it ain't worked yet, but this time It will be different . . .Never is

Where as the Mod says: I bought this game, but before I ring it out to find out where it's lacking, it needs modifications

I just haven't reached that stage yet

The fault I find with the mods is to get one needed ( or thought needed ) feature, I must install 19 features that a) I never thought I needed B) Don't know if it'll PLAY NICE with the other mods

Example: I formally enjoyed shooting rockets out of my Sopwith Triplanes belly in PHASE II, , , if someone offered a mod for that, . .I'd be first in line
