Hi guys,

I just got San Andreas from the Steam Sale and i am loving it so far. Due to its comic style I have no need for HD textures and I can live withthe Max Draw Distance,too. What kind of bothers me though is that trees, bushes and plants dont seem to be part of the draw distance. So i wondered if there was a mod that increases the draw distance of those. I googled it and couldn't find anything. Any help?

Just because nobody answered for a day doesn't mean you won't get answered.
Sorry to burst your bubble dude, but steam version of SA is unmoddable.

You can always downgrade your game, sorry but sharing link to downgrader is forbidden in this forum so you better just search for how-to by yourself.

And the draw distance MIGHT be fixed by this mod, though grass draw distance is hard-coded and no one has changed it yet.

Well, to answer this (surprised no one actually did) to increase foliage draw distance you need to edit the DD value inside vegepart.ide which is located inside the...

DATA/MAPS/GENERIC

folders. You'll see each tree/foliage model listed as such:

615, veg_tree3, gta_tree_boak, 150, 2130052

The one in bold is the Draw Distance value, you can change that up to a maximum of 299 before it gets classed as an LOD by the games default settings (meaning it will have no collision activated).
