Guero209 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I'm sure this has been asked many times, but i searched and couldn't find anything. What i want to do is increase the draw distance in SA and increase the amount of time that the game keeps certain textures and models in memory. Many times i'll be running down the street then turn around and the game has to render that area again. I have 2 gigs of ram so it shouldn't be a problem to keep those textures and models in memory. I tried using the Distance 10x mod found on this site, but i didn't notice any difference. Any info would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so you know, things like textures (and probably the models too) are stored in your graphics card RAM and not system RAM. So it will not help having 2 gigs of RAM if you only have a card with 64MB of RAM. The graphics get drawn depending on what you're looking at, so the game is constantly loading/unloading textures into the card. Having said all that, that's not to say something can't be done about it. Unfortunately, I don't have anywhere to point you as I haven't played around with this sort of thing or looked into it. Just keep looking through mods & forums until you come across something relevant... Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celidor Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 (edited) umm the 10x worked fine for me but it is buggy. I got one that says it doubles it and i noticed I can see skyscrapers in the distance and cars coming from much further away.. Draw_Distance_Mod.rar And that is very interesting RanxeroX I didn't know that. Edited April 10, 2008 by Celidor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deji Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 why would you need it anyway? a bit of a waste of time really... and if you open a file in your gtasa folder then it gives you the option to increase/decrease it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
