I know, I know....again with the trees

I realy don't mean to be a pest, but this is important. I think part of the reason is that I'm not making myself entirely clear. May I present Exhibit A:

Everything is fine. This is on a platform right next to the tree, very high up. The tree is scaled to 2x size. But notice, only AFTER I turn the camera only the slightest bit to the left does it dissapear:

Then it re - appears when I turn back to the right. This happens even at greater distances, but not at extremely great ones - it's mostly at close range. I've tried changing LOD distances, messing around wiht the ODF and msh.option files, and I don't know what else. Any ideas would be hot (though perhaps the only way to get rid of this is to make a new object entirely, which I can't do myself - no xsi).

that's odd

Could it have something to do with your memory allocation?

Happens every time you scale a mesh. It's because the game is still deciding on when to display the object on the orginal mesh (scalle = 1). No known way to fix this.

I have a suggestion.
Maybe, Yes MAYBE it could be "fixed" by making sure it disapears when it's out of sight. try rotating it, or something. It wouldn't really help if you have placed at the center of the map, or at another location where you can see the tree from all sides.
I hope this works...
