FWIW, I fiddled with the distance views in the planes.dat for SPAW, pushing the close model out about to the value that was originally the middle distance value and the middle distance value out to the far distance value.

That was back in '08 or so and no one ever mentioned any problems with PC's that were considerably slower that today's.

This will certainly make modding easier so thanks.

I am corrected...
