| - | As many of you know, OFP use 50meter x 50meter forest block objects, these filled up whole WRP Cell therefore you didnt had to place 20-30 tree objects there, just 1 forest block object. With this system we were able to create insanely thick jungle bush etc. | + | As many of you know, OFP use 50meter x 50meter forest block objects, these filled up whole WRP Cell therefore you didn't had to place 20-30 tree objects there, just 1 forest block object.

| - | Then game along ArmA... and something was changed in the engine, so now all the 50m forest block objects float in the air or having that "flying trees" effect. It was bad, if your mod was using alot of these forect blocks you were doomed as the floatation was utterly bad. | + | Then game along ArmA... and something was changed in the engine, so now all the 50m forest block objects float in the air or having that "flying trees" effect.

| Its tested on pretty rough terrain as you can see, I cannot get it to float, no matter how I place them. | Its tested on pretty rough terrain as you can see, I cannot get it to float, no matter how I place them. | ||

| + | There is serious issue with this method which was only discovered later after this wiki page was created. When using this method, it causes extreme CPU slowdown meaning FPS loss. This was tested on the thick jungle 12km x 12km terrains. We have no explanation why it happens, but basically it makes any 12km terrain unplayable. | ||
