Usage:
GeometryTemplate.SetLodDistance
number number
Argument values:
| argument 1: |
range is 0 to 5; most commonly 0
|
| argument 2: |
range is 0 to 10000; most commonly 0
|
Description: This property sets which LOD (Level Of Detail) of the model will be seen at a
particular distance.
Here is an example:
GeometryTemplate.Create StandardMesh italianhouse09_m1
GeometryTemplate.File italianhouse09_m1
GeometryTemplate.SetLodDistance 0 0
GeometryTemplate.SetLodDistance 1 50
GeometryTemplate.SetLodDistance 2 100
GeometryTemplate.SetLodDistance 3 200
GeometryTemplate.SetLodDistance 4 400
GeometryTemplate.SetLodDistance 5 800
The first argument represents the LOD that will be shown to a player
(0 is for the first LOD, 1 is for the second LOD, etc.).
The second argument represents the distance (in meters) at which you will begin to
see the LOD.
Each subsequent LOD has less detail than the one before it.
A model can have up to six meshes that represent it.
The number of IDs must match the number of LODs you are using in the exported mesh.
Used in object types (and how often in each type): AnimatedMesh
(4%), StandardMesh (84%)
