I feel your pain.

I asked the mod Guru's over at kickinback why I couldn't see Sofu Gan until I was within approx 2 nm, and if anyone knew how to 'fix' that. For example a convoy can be sighted much farther away no problem... not being able to spot landmarks including mountains is a frustrating issue, and not realistic.

Sofu Gan is about as tall as the length of a fleetboat and is roughly 180' x 280', .... IOW it is not a small rock! Of course the reply was that scene.dat is the problem and that CapnScurvy had just released a mod that addressed that very issue.

So, CapnScurvy is 'the right man' and I'm sure he will correct this issue to the best of his ability again, in his much anticipated new mega mod as RR said.

Happy Hunting!
