doesnt it work anymore?

[redface 1]

can someone provide a nograss island based on the updated 1.04 release

[Yeb 0]

1.04 already includes no-grass island: set terrain detail to very low.

New: Terrain Detail now controls grass detail as well (can be used to turn off the grass if you set terrain detail on very low) NOTE: in MP this is controlled by the server only

please explain a bit more so i can set this server side, I've seen it on other servers

sorry, ive been reading this thread and ive seen a few doubts over which servers and modes it will work in, and because im too lazy to actually read, could somebody please give me a quick idea.

Does it work on Multiplayer on all modes?

Does it work on Singlplayer?

Will i be kicked for having it on some Multiplayer servers?

An update would be greatly appreciated.

Ok, ive just realised that u can have no grass offline by selecting very low terrain detail. but that still doesnt work online and wat exactly does this mod do and how do i get it to work online!?

[mattxr 9]

Oki Its the missions that set the terrian detail in MP.

[-21stSAS- Major 0]

ok ty, but the thing is. ive figured out how to extract the PBO which is a start. then wen i host a server i get Sahrani, Sahrani no grass etc. wen i click on it it goes straight into the editor, is ther a way of getting ur missions on ther so u can host em no grass. and if its the missions which set the terrain detail in MP, then why cant i host my own with my own Very Low Graphics settings? forgive me, but i thought this mod would just get rid of grass. but it seems it just does it wen u make yer own missions?

[mattxr 9]

Thats because its an addon, to play missions with this island the missions must have been made on this island, but theres not much really any point in using this as you can go into your options and turn the grass off and in MP its up to the mission designer to have the grass what he likes.

ok ty for making it clear. it doesnt say that in the read me tho does it!? false advertising i say!

And also if u can turn of the grass with very low detail then i see little point in having the mod in the first place.

Also very off topic but u know there are skins for the A-10 tank buster and Hind Gunship, well are they just single player missions? i take it you cant use that online

Note that this addon was released a 2-3 month before BIS did patch with low terrain details. So, I can write that BIS copy OFman work to boost ArmA performance

A little off topic:

Can someone please give me the run down on how to turn off grass in MP as the server host?
