I see the trees fine, even with a low LOD Factor and draw distance set.
Is the non-impostor value in Prefs > Graphics too low?
If it is lower than the amount of users + animesh in a scene, the farthest users or animesh will become sprites and "flicker" if their animated image location(pelvis bone translation) changes enough to cause their ranking to change.
Can you post a picture or video of what you're seeing?
What just happened?
Animesh trees rezzed on my land randomly vanish, and sometimes flicker rapidly visible/invisible. This is happening repeatedly, randomly, and often enough to make the trees unusable. They are well within my view distance and first LOD distance. I have several sets rezzed and it happens to all of them. Their shadows are still visible and animating. I can stand right under the trees and they still do not appear, but I can see the shadows on the ground and even select the invisible trees above me.
What were you doing when it happened?
Viewing trees on my land, within my view distance and first LOD distance.
What were you expecting to happen instead?
Rezzed animesh objects should not randomly vanish for no good cause!
Other information
The creator of the Hayabusa trees has seen the issue too, with their own Animesh trees on their own sim.
When vanished, I can still select the trees by guessing where they are and in Firestorm they show different Object LOD Behaviour to what they do when visible (extremely low object radius and LOD switch distances compared to what they should be). Sometimes TPing out and back brings the trees back, sometimes not. I can find no pattern to reliably cause the trees to vanish or bring them back.
The issue happens in LL and Firestorm viewers the same.
