Setting up LOD's (help please!)

[Mr. Ravenswood]

Ok hi,

I've made some models and in the importer tutorial it says click the A button in the LOD set up (in Create OVL) but it won't let me click it. :cry:
I have 6 models in the models section by the way.

Does anyone know how to help me?

Thanks

with multiple models, you can't "Auto-assign" the lods. You have to select each model, then click the + sign to add that model's draw distance setting....


But- I think you might be going too far having 6 different versions of the same model. three (or four) should be enough for that scenery OVL. (and don't be thinking that you are setting up 6 different scenery pieces in one go- you have to do each different scenery piece seperately- multiple models in one OVL is only for making different LODs )

Ooooooooh! I see. So I need to make a new OVL for every model. Ok thanks Vodhin =]

6 models ? so your 1 item got 6 different poly versions ?

A new OVL for each different scenery piece. each OVL can have different versions of that piece for different detail levels/draw distances (A must for detailed models, not really needed for a simple 6 sided wall with no features).
