Official PVP EU PC Some textures or grass are missing in large areas. And grass seem to load only when you are near an area. There is something wrong. ![20210821215647_1](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/funcom/original/3X/f/0/f06177b2f78bea9bf76f62aa7e60cecc8256e915.jpeg) ![20210821215651_1](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/funcom/original/3X/c/e/ce06955711eb8ba7a1f70e75421c83787def62cd.jpeg) ---

Don’t know about that specific spot, but view distance on grass has always been configurable via cmd. r.viewdistancescale (insert number here 1-3) Example r.viewdistancescale 3 ---

Isn’t that the same as foliage quality graphics setting? Which (as a trick to help finding pets) is to set to low/no to be able to find the small pets and back to your normal settings afterwards so you can have your lovely grass as always. ---

View distance is how far away it need to be before it renders. With the method you mention distance doesn’t matter ---

I confirm. I noticed the same thing near Freya Hovel. Large areas completely without grass. It seems to be related to some newly modified terrain. ---

Is it permanent? In the DefaultScalability.ini file you can add numbers beyond 3 and that value stays after you quit the game and start playing again. But have to have a backup because sometimes an update overwrites it. ---

> [@rolee9309](#): > > Is it permanent? > > In the DefaultScalability.ini file you can add numbers beyond 3 and that value stays after you quit the game and start playing again I think you can actually edit the other ini files and they won’t change after an update (the ones under steamapps\common\Conan Exiles\ConanSandbox\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor). It’s been FOREVER since I did it (years), and I’ve sinced re-installed Conan on a completely different hard drive, so I don’t have my old ini files anymore. Anyways, pretty sure if you just add what you need to the right ini file, it’ll stay there. But, and I haven’t experimented with this. When I hopped in-game to make sure it was still working prior to my post, I noticed that my changes seemed to stick on multiple relaunches of the save file/game. Which it didn’t use to do that before, not when you did it via CMD. So, that may have changed at some point and I just never noticed. ---

> [@Multigun](#): > > steamapps\common\Conan Exiles\ConanSandbox\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor Ahh, many thanks! You saved me a f\*\*\*kton of time. I hated comparing what was changed and then modifying the default and base .ini files after updates… ---
