A Level Of Detail Script used for switching out low-poly models for high-poly models as the player approaches the objects for larger scale levels to help with game optimization!
I made this system to help with larger levels in mind to not impact graphics performance. Its rather simple in its function; the LOD_Handler.cs finds all the objects tagged by the developer adds them to a list “allEnvironmentObjects”, then performs a sphere ray cast from the player position, the size of the sphere being adjustable, and if a object in the list is within the sphere cast it adds it to a list “allHitEnvironmentObjects”, then calls a function from the object scripts (low_poly_model.cs & high_poly_model.cs) to activate or deactivate their mesh renderes, dependent on if the plaer is near the object or not.
