Day 5

I have the side frames done, there made of 4 parts each so I can do an LOD on them.

LOD - Level of Detail

This is where you replace a high detail mesh with a lower detail mesh. The game does this bast on the percent of screen width and is in a text file where 1.0 = 100% and 0.01 = 1%. To do this you need to have a reduction of at lest 500 polys and should be around a 50% reduction. Generally I have 2 to 4 LOD's depending on the car or loco, some just do not have that much to remove.
