I have been meaning to post about this for a long time but I keep forgetting....

Is it possible that the maximum for gl_simpleitems_size can be increased above a value of 16?

Currently on dm2 in the big room when you stand on the opposite stairs platform you can jump up and down to see if mega is up but when you enable simple items you can no longer see if it is there as the simple items are significantly smaller giving you a disadvantage. The maximum wouldn't need to be increased by much....

Same thing on aerowalk's MH. Also on dm3's SNG MH, you can never see it if you don't jump in the stairs.

Ofc it all depends on your v_viewheight.

I use the same v_viewheight when I turn on/off simple items...

Make sure you have cl_model_bobbing 1 set, this makes it easier to see items as they oscillate to a greater height. Just checked and I can see dm2 mega from the stairs with simple items enabled, although I don't know if we are talking about the exact same spot.

HangTime - Thanks, that worked (if i jumped at the same time the model bobbed up).
