Noob having problems with aircraft visibility

[donut.boy2]

Im having a consistent problem when closing, or being closed on by red aircraft only. There is a transitional period between an aircraft appearing as a featureless black dot and a distinguishable shape where the aircraft will cease to exist for up to three seconds, then reappear where you would expect it to be as a detailed aircraft, if it maintains course. I don't experience any stuttering, nor does it seem like the other aircraft are jumping. This began happening with the new version. I am quite new to online gaming in general so there is a high probability that i have set something up incorrectly. Is this a symptom of poor internet connection or wrong settings? Does this happen to anyone else? I have not had this happen as a red pilot closing with a blue plane, and fly both sides roughly the same amount of time. Sometimes it does not matter that much, and sometimes i get killed. Any suggestions of things to try would be hugely appreciated.

This sounds like an LOD issue. (which Clod has plenty of)

To help you can try changing this setting in the conf.ini in your Docs/IL2COD folder












MeshShowLod=1
SpawnHumans=1

That will draw the LOD much earlier, but will cause an FPS hit.

Thanks again for finding the time to help me out bliss, changing the value to 1 seems to have solved my problem. couldn't be happier about it and the game.
