Being static poppy fields, I guess they render at long range. Or are they undergrowth? (doubt it)

Rhino, are these things the same size as the old ones? As in, replacing these in an existing maps is much easier then, also for the community. If they're a different size, existing maps (ground) may need to be altered (raised/lowered/re-painted) and re-lightmapped.

no AD they are not the same size, they are much smaller... the maps do not need to be altered much apart from its undergrowth settings and no new lightmaps need to happen as overgrowth dont use lightmaps and these fields do not cast ligthmaps on the terrain.

Rog, cheers .

I know the fields don't need to be lightmapped, but if the size was bigger for example, this may result in mappers needing to change the terrain, which may result a new lightmap of the terrain, etc . I know it's a long shot, but still, hehe. Good to hear anyways. Will put it in my map as well..
