February 9, 200620 yr Help! I'm trying to grasp the LOD concept. I have a group of parked cars. I create a dummy object and name it Parking_LOD_100. I attach all cars to this dummy object. I duplicate dummy and call it Parking_LOD_050. I select half the cars and attach to second dummy. I export and save and go see. When I open FS2004, the cars I had selected to keep are gone and the ones I thought would go away are still there. What am I missing? Thanks. Happy landings, Mike Eppright (KAAO)
February 9, 200620 yr Hi!I don't understand all this linking thing the new SDK is talking about...I think the easiest way to do LODs in this case is like this:* Group half the the cars and name the group Parking_LOD_100* Make a dummy and name it Parking_LOD_50 That's it, you now have half the cars visible all the time and the rest of them when you get close enough.In general... just make a group of objects:* whatever_LOD_100 - the detailed modeland similar way* whatever_LOD_50 or 40 or even 99 sometimes when objects are big - the less detailed model.This is all that is needed.Tatu
