What setting turns this off!

[Teagan Tobias]

I live in a Linden Home, and I like it. And this problem is not restricted to my home, its every place, how do I turn it off or turn it around?

I log on and I am at home, I look out the window and watch the other houses rez, I can read the numbers over the doors, without caming!!, but things in my house are still blurry. How do I tell SL to rez things close to me and then worry about things that are 60 or more meters away, that I will never interact with!

This is most madding in shops as I see the shop but can't see ad boards to buy something, that's counterproductive!

How do I tell SL to show me the things around me and then worry about things I truly don't care about.

Did you play with the LOD factor? Keep it low and SL will load fast... if LOD factor sin't the problem, try reducing max bandwidth settings.

Lowering your draw distance can help

@Teagan Tobias: If you are using a TPV, particularly V1-derived, the thing you are looking for is "enable speed-rezzing ..." which steps the draw distance down at first, then gradually expands it as yourtimmediate vicinity gets fully loaded.

 

I have no idea of any of the V2/V3 viewers implement this.

Thanks for taking time to respond.

My LOD is 2.5, my bandwidth is a moving target, recently going from 500 to 1000 and now to 800, but its all about the same in what I see. My draw distance will change depending on where I am but normal is 72 or 96.

The viewers I use are Kokua, Alchemy and Linden Lab viewer, all are the latest by each.

I had another thread about things being bleary in general, Things are Bleary - May 9, and that helped some, but seeing things far away but not up close just makes SL difficult.

I am thinking its could be by design to keep people shopping on the Marketplace and not in world, if so, its working.

Check all tabs of your graphics settings.  It sounds like maybe you've accidentally turned on some Depth of Field (DOF) setting.
