Request: Extending parallax occlusion/shadow distance

[Lotus-Rob]

I wanted to submit a potential feature request, mostly to know if it's possible, viable, or you are willing to implement it, for extending the distance the High Parallax Occlusion is rendered.

When System Configuration -> Graphics Settings -> Parallax Occlusion is set to High, the distance the parallax effect and shadows are calculated are extremely close to the camera and can give a undesirable seam across the screen. I assume there is hopefully internal properties for setting the distance of this similarly to the shadows, hence why I have reached out to you. The effect does not appear when using the Normal setting.

Setting:

If this is beyond the mod or your own scope, no worries, just wanted to ask and see!

I believe this happens because the distance in which the texture changes to lower mips is way too close. I'm not sure how the effect works internally, so I can't really say if it's possible or not, but I can look into it at some point.
