LODs, Part 2

  • And other LODs can be created by simplifying models: using polygon reduction or bounding volumes. Lowest level: 12 triangles. Middle level: 114 triangles. HiRes level: 242 triangles.
    • Use LODs if you want to keep a representation of your model in the scene. Use proximity sensors if the model's presence is transient.
     
    • For performance, balance download time with use of LODs, inlines, with scene complexity. ("Waves" of download)
