I assume the meshes you had to lod have not been constructed with LODs in mind? Which is a pretty common issue. Auto unwrapped and relaxed UVs, less than optimal geometry, floating geometry not baked down etc. There are lots of things that can make the job of creating lods a nightmare or a breeze

Parents want these kinds of laws so they can divest themselves of responsibility for their own children. Let the stores (or the state) do the parenting so they don't have to, etc etc. Frank the Avenger
