Custom Realism - Alternate Plane Visibility - Multiplayer / Player Options Question

[WWDriftwood]

Question 

 

If a server allows "Alternate Plane Visibility" for realism settings / and / I have unchecked alternate plane visibility in my game settings. Am I forced to used the "alternate plane visibility" on servers with alternate plane visibility enabled? / OR / will I get the standard visibility if mine is unchecked? 

 

Example: Some things seem to default to my settings even thought a server allows it, some don't... Server allows auto pilot, I have mine unchecked, so I don't get auto pilot if I press the keys even though the server allows it. 

 

So, by leaving my alternate plane visibility unchecked, will my view stay this way regardless of what a server allows? 

 

Hope that makes sense.

Hmm, as far as I know, the realism settings the server uses are applied to you completely.

I dont know any servers using alt visiblilty to my sadness.

If you leave alternate visibility unchecked, and the server has Alternate Visibility activated, you will have Alternate Visibility. The server setting prevails.

I know this because, when Combat Box was testing Alt Vis vs. Normal Vis, I left my settings at normal visibility but the visibility was clearly still alternate.
