Remove grass in some areas/maps

not possible with vBF2s undergrowth, and then you would also have to work out every single area from every single angle that would be able to be seen etc. And that was also only the case for Steel thunder as the grass was at shoulder level, which in most maps its much lower.

Ah. Okiedoke. What I had in mind though was just basically "raising" the ground texture through another mechanism. Where I was coming from was the method used in ArmA whereby objects "sink" into the ground at a distance to simulate grass cover.

Yeah, how about making stuff NOT render inside grass?
So if they cant see the grass, they wont see you?

Another problems with your random logs and **** on the ground would be the bf2 engines incapability of moving over an object that is a foot high without jumping over it. If you had logs/debris everywhere it would be hard to move without bunnyhopping from log to log.
