This did it! Grass looks much better as a result, maybe they were connected. Thank you sooo much. Seriously. 
This also fixed the issues with placing/removing terrain showing the void.
I’m personally finding this has improved loading times but I have other players saying it’s still what they used to be. I am hearing this improved performance.
I’d like to confirm this, the difference has been amazing! The games now load correctly.
@ConvexRumbler, I see you have said the flag is off for now, will if be turned back on when fixed? Thanks!
I’ve been seeing this bug in Jailbreak for about 4-7 months on my Microsoft Surface.
Can confirm this is still an issue. This still happens to me in Jailbreak, and in my own game as well. Pretty much any game with a large map that is terrain-reliant.
If you drive around or move at a fast speed, the terrain loading is horrible. This also includes things like instant camera changes caused by either cutscenes (ex. Jailbreak start screen, when you switch from the Police to Prisoner cutscenes, there are patches of terrain visible for a few seconds or less) or spawning.
It looks exactly like the second gif asimo posted; there are random patches of terrain that float around and are not loading in/out fast enough to a point where it looks seamless.
Definitely not still an issue. Night and day difference when this flag was ticked off a few days ago.
Could this possibly be related to terrain having broken LOD when adding terrain in studio? It only happened very recently, and I suspect it had something to do with this change.
I’d love confirmation that this issue isn’t just happening to me. Please let me know!
I wouldn’t be so sure. I’m still having terrible problems with this. It’s quite literally cost me hours of work. I can DM screenshots if it would help you.
I got a video of the issue in my go to terrain testing game when I am on mobile, Broken Bones.
This is definitely not just you. I’ve had issues with this as well. I’m having a strange combination of these issues. It’s cost me hours of work.
Uh… not for me. This has been happening to me for a couple of months now.
As you can see, there’s a lot of terrain flickering around through the roads and is showing up where it’s not supposed to.
The terrain LOD also causes the terrain’s geometry to appear way different than what it actually is
When you’re away from it:
When you get closer to it:
This is also happening in my game too, but it’s a lot worse.
Floating patches of terrain and inaccurate geometry
Before:
What it’s supposed to be like (this is when you get close)
In the second video, you can see as I drive around the dynamic LOD looks pretty bad, and there’s a lot of floating patches of terrain/inaccurate geometry appearance
Idk why this happens, but it’s really annoying and it happens to me with pretty much any big terrain map with StreamingEnabled (including mine).
Not sure if it’s my StreamingEnabled settings either, I have 192 target and 1064 max
I’m also playing on max graphics and with Vulkan.
This might be just for me, but if it isn’t, I really hopes this gets fixed, because this has been a problem for me for a while 
It’s a problem in game and in studio. The changes did not fix the issue, at least for me.
what if they made it so if a part is over terrain it won’t load that part of terrain
If LOD was removed it would significantly make performance much lower. Also Roblox focuses on mobile more than pc/console performance.
The problem has ALWAYS existed, but it used to be very noticeably worse. Watch the clip I posted in the first post. The flag fixed the problem described in the post. Marking this as solved.
There’s nothing wrong with this video. LOD has always been visible. Check out the video in the first post.
It’s very noticeable in my game I have to be almost exactly right beside the terrain for it to smooth out.
Incorrect. The quality is still terrible. There was a time where LOD did not effect the game in that big of a difference. Like I said, if you want more info send me a DM, I’ve got a few cases of it documented, that one was just the easiest to tell.
Edit: Let me rephrase that as it came off a bit aggressive. The biggest issue I have noticed with the LOD is when using different materials such as rocks, asphalt, etc., it loads in too slow and doesn’t give details until later. Another huge problem has been with grass decoration. I have screenshots of the grass quite literally being extremely tall or extremely wide. I can provide pictures in DMs (I do not want to leak the map to the public).
I have seen this bug for a few years. It started in around late 2018 and early 2019 for me. I was on a low end laptop and old desktop and when i drove in parts of jailbreak the terrain wouldn’t be fully loaded. It still happens on my newer machine a bit when i first join jailbreak and escape quickly but on lower end hardware it happens A LOT (Last time i used that old desktop was early this year and it still happened and last time I used that low end laptop was a year or two ago since the display broke. I currently have a newer 2020 laptop)
Sadly this issue is still present. Here is a video of it in action in my terrain commission:
The choppiness and slowness of the terrain is unacceptable. Players are going to leave because they see strange looking terrain. I’ve sent the game link so you can check it out if needed.
@ConvexRumbler and any other staff: I’ve enabled freecam for everyone so you can see the issue first hand.
Terrain lod is centered around your player not camera. That is why it does not switch to higher res lod when you fly closer to it
Would it be possible to have it set around the camera, as that is what the player will be seeing anyways? Should I open a Feature Request for this?
It’d be much better for the LoD to be based around the camera for player experience.
