It'd do the exact opposite. By removing levels of detail, the game doesn't have to render such high quality graphics.

i thought i read something that mentions lag when the engine CAN'T render such high quality graphics.

and then i could be wrong as usual ...

Now the game doesn't have to. Because you've removed the levels of detail.

Its will make the detail the highest it can be from any distance. Witch could cause lag but most likely wont.
This fixes things like black Warthogs and rocks.

Nice but this should remove the model lods too because there are LODs on the models which uses the bitmap lod so if it loads a low LOD for the model and that this low LOD for the bitmap is removed the model will look wreid like blurry and with only 1 color like it happenned for oldmombasa MPC...

I don't see the point in this...I've never had problems when I've done skins...

This app is great. It is making things load so much smoother around my map. I'm having a problem though. It is giving me bitmap holes in my map. Is that normal?
