How to disable foliage

Hi,

does anyone know how to disable the foliage on the planets? I remember that a few PA versions back, when I had LOW graphics preset, the foliage was gone, and my system was happy Now, it is back, and things tend to crawl.

Anyone?

Check the build release thread, I'm pretty sure something involving tree LOD was broken in the latest build and had to be rolled back.

If I recall correctly, there was a command-line option to do it. I've lost it now, though.

It's "--nofeatures". It will also disable metal spots, however.

Uhh, you can rename one of the shaders... Let me link you to the thread for this, it was in the mods forum...

Helpful thread is helpful.

I have tried the following:

"D:\Planetary Annihilation\PA\PA.exe" --nofeatures
"D:\Planetary Annihilation\PA\PA.exe" -nofeatures
"D:\Planetary Annihilation\PA\PA.exe" "--nofeatures"

The above did not work. Any other solution (trees were still there)? I have tried commenting out the void main in the prelight_flat.fs; it does work, but is not very elegant

You could try maxpowerz's Tree quality reducer mod. You will still see the trees, but with the least amount of polygons.
