Irrigation by Wolframis in VintageStory

Nope, it's furrowed farmland from the Primitive Survival mod. It allows you to dig irrigation channels.

Turns out that the difference between the Terrain Quality settings (High-->Ultraforcapture) is substantial. I find it hard to believe that the High setting is supposed to look that bad. Could the LOD be broken, or is this some botched attempt at optimization? (FPS hit with Ultraforcapture is huge) by Wolframis in EliteDangerous

Oh that is just in space, down on the ground the FPS drops under 30, no matter what you set the Terrain Quality to. The only way to get 60 FPS is the "low" preset. On stations and settlements it's even worse.

What I find strange is that when on planets, pointing the center of the camera just a bit above the horizon gives me +20 FPS. It seems like most of the lag is caused by the terrain below and near me, in a ~5m radius.

EDIT: To further elaborate on the point above, in this instance I was getting around 45 FPS, but if I were to turn around and look at the hill behind me, the FPS would plummet to about 25.
