quick question: is it possible to increase the distance the name of mobs and resource nodes are displayed? i am trying to fish a bit and i am seeing the fishing nodes only if i more or less stand on them.
while it's not really important with the resource nodes, it gets shitty with the aggro mobs, because often i run into things before realising it's scowling at me.
(btw its not a problem with the rendering of the mobs per se, and if i mouseover/target mobs i can see the name even at 200yards away.)

Found this in 10 seconds of googling "increase view distance of harvest nodes eq2." It's a very old post so it may not be accurate.
Options -> models -> Model bias -> maximum... you can see even difficult nodes (dens, logs) from MUCH MUCH further away.
thanks for the condecension, but you misread my post. i can see all mobs/nodes just fine from as far as 200 yards (or whatever units those are). and i really dont have a problem with finding foresting/gathering/mining resources even without the names displayed above the nodes. but the fishing nodes are slightly submerged so i only see them (and their nametags) when i am really close. and that's what i want to change. the distance when the fucking nametags of the nodes and mobs are displayed.

Had a similar issue when doing Qho's shit when I hit the Nektulos fishing, I ended up just swimming the edges of the river and hitting TAB every two seconds to find the fish nodes.
PS: If you play Australian timezone evenings and would like to play a bard or chanter send me a PM and I'll powerlevel you on Unrest. These mana-drains in Sleepers are pissing me right the fuck off. =D

That sounds horrific. I can't imagine going back to EQ2 after not playing for 2-3 years and upgrading one of my level 30-40 chars to level 85. How many skills would that net you? yikes

Btw, item restriction is also gone, all you need is 700 - 800 SC to upgrade all your spells to Master (assuming you have the spells already).
Other than that, no real reason to pay $15 a month to play

Nope.
I loaded up a L20is alt, got the 85 thing.
SHIT EVERYWHERE across 7 hotbars. Old spells mixed in with new. Threw up my hands, logged out, and cancelled.
L85 thing gives 5 plat, a full set of very good for the level gear, and a flying mount. Worth a look if you are a masochist.
