Maybe not suitable for streaming, cinematics shot etc, as it disables farther objects Works in Community Creations maps and Create Mode (Cremo) editor, so it is ideal for players with less performant PC, who just want run their personal best times or map creators building big maps Can be enabled in in-game settings/game/misc Multiplayer Multiplayer supports community creations maps Lobbies enumeration…
