Changing the view distance for NPCs?
 

Is there a setting in Xenus 2 I can tweak such that I can see NPCs from a longer distance?

I am just starting out. I climbed an observation tower just outside the starting village and whipped out the binoculars. I could see static objects just fine, but zooming in revealed no people at all. I guess I was still too far away. It kind of messed up the "immersion" (Yes, that word!) for me.

Anyway, I am using the Gamer's Gate version with Wesps 1.3 unoffical patch.
