Increase VIEW distance

I am preparing my adventures for Northrend and I would really enjoy it if I could actually see Northrend’s environment. I’ve spent a good 3 hours this morning trying to find a way to increase my view distance. I’m not talking about CAMERA distance from the character, I’m talking about VIEW distance; the distance buildings and terrains are viewed before the fog kicks in.

I have already tried many commands such as:
/console Farclip
/console groundEffectDensity
/console groundEffectDist
/console detailDoodadAlpha
/console characterAmbient
/console smallcull
/console skycloudlod
/console extShadowQuality

I have already turned up all of my graphics settings to Ultra (max).

I understand NPCs and objects such as quest nodes should not be rendered from a far distance as that would give an unfair advantage.

But I do not see how increasing view distance (decreasing fog) would hurt anything.

Could I have any assistance on how to increase my VIEW distance?
(again, not camera distance)

It’s all based on server load. Same reason NPC / Players render in at 200 meters on good days or 40 on bad days.

ProUltraGraphics addon has all the other commands to give you the best graphics though.

Yep, this addon appears to have everything other than what I’m looking for. Still good stuff though! Thanks.
