/visscale 4.0
That will change your World Detail to 400%, but it will reset back to the maximum option window value of 200% (2.0) when you zone. If you type any value higher than 4.0, it will instantly default to the maximum value of 4.0 anyway.
For convenience, you can simply bind it to a key and press it when you are outside and want to have a look around. It certainly does make things stand out better at a distance.
Example:
/bind numpad0 "visscale 4"
On a side note, it does NOT let you see enemies any further away and gives no tactical advantage. If anything, a lower value would technically help you see enemies quicker because you will be able to target foes that are hidden behind structures that have not appeared on your screen yet. (They think they are hiding behind that tree, but they don't know that you can't see the tree. lol)
On another side note, it doesn't help you see any further through the "fog" in Dark Astoria at all either. 
Hiya,
I seem to remember a looooong time ago (3-4 years ago) trying out a slash command in-game that allowed you to customize the draw distance when you're outside -- enemies, architecture being animated from far away and so on. Made an amazing difference when you're sitting atop a skyscraper. I cant seem to remember/find the command. Does anyone know it?
Thanks!
KABOOM!
