Hello, I'm currently working on a TFC map (yes I know TFC is old but...) and it compiles and works fine aside from the fact that it has it's view distance limited. I tried the -maxdistance thing and whatnot and I don't know what else to do. I'm not using any custom textures by the way, all default. Here's a copy of my last compile (thanks in advance!):

Don't set it to -maxdistance 800000.
Set it to 8192.
