Default GWX 16k range?

Hello, I am running GWX1.03 and SH3 Commander, only clicking on sh3 commander to start the game. I was wondering if I have the 16k already running?
I think this is the visual range from 8k to 16k.
thanks

GWX came with JSGME (JoneSoftGenericModEnabler)....there's a shortcut in the main SH3-directory.
To get the 16km-range, you need to enable it, using the JSGME.
To go back to 8km, simply remove it again, ie. move it back from the right JSGME-window to the left.

To find out if you have it, start a patrol. Use the map tools to measure the range to the starting port. If you find you are still seeing buildings from 12-13 km out, you have it. If they disappear after eight, well...

You will also notice a distinct difference in the horizon / sky. The 16km seems to show up as sculpted tones, rather than the smooth haze offered by 8km. I've gone back to 8km...

Me too, but because of the vampire night vision
