Running the latest 15 version and I don't see the "model visibility" setting that allows you to change the size of other aircraft.

Yes, they are working on a better way of dealing with visibility. Unfortunately it's taking a while.

Is that the new slogan? I'm still partial to "everything is subject to change."

I got an idea... Just bring back the option to make planes look bigger.

Hard to comprehend this is even an issue worth using brain cells to solve.

They pull the option before implementing the better feature, leaving us with nothing. Yeah, thats smart.

Makes perfect sense. I presume the "better option" is "wait until everyone gets super high res VR headsets"

So, right around the launch of the F/A-18 pre-alpha.

No, but not using it on certain servers would make me at an disadvantage and having it on looked redicilous, so it restricted alot of places for me to fly.... but no, never been forced to do anything in life, everthing is a choice, still, thank god they removed it...

So your online frag rate took a hit and as such no one should be able to use the option?

I do see that some guy with bad eye-sight using it for his singleplayer mission totally ruins your world and as such he should not have the option.

One other solution could be leaving the option in ther but have ED force all server owners to set the options you prefer, they only paid for the server hardware after all.

What a wonderful world you live in.

So who forced you to fly on certain servers? What stopped you from NOT flying on those servers?
