Mapmaking problem/question...VIS?

What causes the effect disapearing the lower objects (like airstrip, heliports, flat concret areas) while going higher with e.g. an heli?

Is this a VIS problem? I read the tutorial...would this be solved with a VIS System of the terrain? ATM I have only VIS for the buildings (not strip)...

I guess, it would be the same, if i had cut off the ground...

Not having VIS sectors for flying units is bad because that will happen, and i think you should cut the mesh under each structure so you won't have any clipping issues.

Think the Hourglass Gmax Template has buildings setup with mesh clipped from under buildings not sure about other Gmax setups, but that's where i would start, or simply do it yourself by arranging vertices manually to create mesh around structures.

Also Aircraftkiller created a tutorial which briefly covered how to do this on C&C Den [LINK]
