    Outdoor Housing furnishing - view distance / pop in effect?

    I hesitate to post this in the Bug Reports because it's very much liable to be working as intended (only some items are affected) & they'll just close it without discussion. I don't know if there's a simple solution to it either, via graphics settings, but I haven't been able to locate it so far.

    So, what's happening is, the items on my estate are invisible outside a certain range. This only affects some of the items, as others are visible from edge-of-sight.
    To illustrate this:



    In the upper left going right, you see a pink Death's finger tree, a row of cannons, a gap, a single cannon, and 3 cannons fading into the distance as you reach the base of the stairs. On the far right, that white thing is an umbrella on somebody else's estate. I think it's fair to say that they are good deal further away than anything on the plot immediately behind me:




    4 torches aaand they're turned off.
    Wait, 4?





    Even standing in the middle, they're not all visible or turned on.
    I went through all the graphic options; there's nothing I see that increases this pop-in view distance. Objects/characters are already set to maximum.

    I don't think it's an unreasonable expectation that all my housing items be visible to me, at least while I'm on my own estate, especially after I've plunked down 62m on the silly thing. Just sort of kills the fun of decorating if you don't get to see half the yard. You guys have this problem? Known solutions? I'm just kinda frustrated with it...

    Yeah I've noticed campfire flames go out and then back on as you zoom the camera in and out. Good times.

    Yeah the lighting effects in particular are annoying. We have a ring of stone vigil beacons around our house and they dont start to light up until you're almost right on top of them. More or less kills the effect.

    I noticed that too! Some people's outdoor furniture completely vanishes when you're far away so when you look at a neighbors house it looks like it's totally empty. I wonder why it's like that? Maybe for server lag reasons?
