LOD Mesh Blurriness

kimchee519

Hey guys,

I Created a asset recently in UE4 and for some reason every time I move the camera away from the mesh, the details and textures of it become blurry and unfocused. I unchecked the LOD auto correct box in LOD info of the mesh and turned LOD to NONE, so I still don't understand why the mesh becomes blurry when I move away from it, any ideas? Thanks.

If the mesh is becoming blurry, it probably means the textures are being blurred, right?

That's controlled by the Mipmapping settings within the textures themselves. Not sure of the specific settings, though.

maybe this is helpful for you.. atleast for previewing.. I don't think you should turn it off permanently..

Thanks Cay, checking the box of the "Never Stream" did the trick. Does this affect my UE4 environment or performance in any way?

found some more info on the topic..
it seems to happen that if you create your mesh in a different scale than native ue4's and you have to adjust the build scale of the mesh to get it right you will also have to adjust Streaming Distance Multiplier(mesh settings) in order to compensate.... maybe try this one too.. should be better than actually turning off streaming
