Basically, I want grass (a 3D thing that looks disgusting any further away than about 100 metres) to disappear at said one hundred metres. I know it's possible, because I've seen objects that are not rendered at a certain distance. How do you determine when the object is no longer shown?

 

Thanks

from http://developer.x-plane.com/?article=obj8-file-format-specification
 

ATTR_LOD <near> <far>
LOD indicates the beginning of a new LOD, which should be used to represent the object when the viewer is between near (inclusive) and far (exclusive) meters.


Above is for *.obj file. If you use *.for, try

LOD <max lod>
This defines the farthest distance the trees can be seen. Lower values cause forests to disappear faster but result in faster frame rate.
