I mention it in the video, but it is somewhat buried - view distance is more a data loading problem than a rendering problem. I just have to optimize for faster data loading (right now it happens on the main thread so it locks the program for bigger data loads/unloads and makes it lag). Still pretty early in this respect, so a lot of room for improvement there down the road. I am friends with Branislav (Atomontage) and a long time fan of Ken's work. :)
