Problem with LOD

[Jose26x 22]

Hello friends I have a problem and I know that here I will find the solution.

I have created a subway station, everything is fine with the station I have problem with the LOD.

In editor everything looks good, when I move the camera the LOD works looks and with the texture and everything, but to save the file and I see it in the game the LOD RUN BUT do not see the texture is seen in White.

Mod LOD only has 500 Tris

Can you make a screenshot of your files? Probably somewhere a filename. Also 500 tris is very excessive. You should be able to do that with 50 max.

I have to on the staying a little bit more about this because the mod lod did I make is only texture,  how I can't reduce de tris. I am my work when I go out I can look and send it

for the lod make a very simple shape .. besides the roof - you station is a cube - so take the cube and then another one as big as the roof - then use texture baking to get the textures for the lod .. this way you can stay under 100 tris for the lod-model.

 

You lod looks so weird because you wrote LOD instead of lod for your fbx-lod file. The lod showed in the editor was generated and not the one you modeled.

So I need to "re" lod not LOD ?

You  need to have consistency with your file names. I can see you have the model filename as LOD and your textures for that model as lod. These need to be the same otherwise they won't match. Just change your model to lod from LOD.

yeah .. lod has to be in small letters !!

filename_lod.fbx

filename_lod_d.png

etc...

I think there's also some issues with making LODs with SketchUp, since you don't really have control over the UV. Maybe @Darf knows some tricks to get the UV coordinates to behave in SketchUp. Otherwise you'll want to grab another 3D program like 3DS Max or Blender (free) for the LOD.

You can get it done with roadkill, but you are far better of with any other program for uving. I only do poly editing in Sketchup, rest happens in 3ds max.  Problem here of the LOD is that his filenaming is not consistent. Filenaming is case sensitive. And yes, I would do redo that lod, looks like a lot of unused geometry.

Hello and thanks for the guide, if I have the name of the LOD wrong in the sense that I did not follow with a continuous route, by the way I do not work with "LOD" has to be "lod".

In the subject of the model LOD I repair everything based on your advice and that of a friend, this is the result 94 tris.

And in the program I am using vray for the uv manual difficult but there are we live
