Flotter's easyLOD [Blender 3.x]

What is Flotters easyLOD ?

Flotter's easyLOD is an addon to make basic LOD easy and fast to make using the decimate modifier with the ratio based on the de number of LOD asked.

Why did I Made it ?

A few times ago in school we had the issue that our game was pretty laggy due to the lack of optimisation, so we needed a way to make LOD fast because of the number of assets that we had to optimize so the game could run at a descent framerate. And then after the project was finished I reworked it to manage any number of LOD because at the time it could only do 3 LODs no other value without editing the script directly.

How to use ?

In the "Flotters Tool" tab you have Easy LOD.

Number of LOD : Represent the number of LOD + the original it also manage the decimation ratio based on this number.

LOD Name : The name that will be given when using on a single object + "_LODx" with x beeing the LOD level. If multiple object are selected it will use each of their name instead of the name put in this field + "_LODx".

Create LOD : This button generates the LODs.

Once created all LODs will be parented to the original mesh so that when you modify its transforms the LODs will follow.
