<p>I can't find it now, but at one point in the past, the client allowed us to set a Maximum Draw Distance (or a similar name.) Does that still exist?</p><p>Reason I ask is because I get horrible FPS in large, outdoor zones. (Currently in Kunzar Jungle and get single-digit FPS when running around the jungle.) When in an enclosed area (like inside a structure, or in a dungeon zone) my FPS is smooth and playable.</p><p>I think the game is trying to draw things that are way off in the distance and it's stuggling to keep up. If I could reduce that draw distance, it would never try to draw those things and since there would be less things to draw I would get higher FPS.</p><p>Anyway, does such a setting exist in the default UI?</p>

<p>It is somewhere in the default UI to see that option though you must have the advanced button (upper right) clicked.</p>

<p>Bam! there it is. Found a few more items I could turn off. Now all the sudden I can run and look around without any graphical lag.</p><p>Thanks a million Lempo.</p>
