| Title | Octahedral Impostor LOD |
| Description |
Turn heavy 3D objects into lightweight octahedral impostors: one flat, camera-facing card per object that looks like the real model from any angle. Up close you see the real mesh; farther away the card takes over automatically. A whole forest of 30,000-triangle rocks becomes 2 triangles per rock in the distance. Features: - One click in the editor: select objects, "Octahedral Impostor LOD > Bake Selected...", done. - Automatic LOD switching using Godot's built-in visibility ranges (zero runtime script overhead). - True 3D look: 144 baked views per object, blended, with per-pixel depth and normals. Cards receive scene lighting, cast shadows, and intersect terrain correctly. - Optimized batching: all cards from one atlas share a single material; MultiMesh supported. - Quality modes: Low (1 view), Medium (3 blended views), High (3 blended views + depth parallax). - Compression: Lossless or VRAM (Basis Universal) texture compression. - Fully undoable with standard Ctrl+Z. - GDScript API: OctaLOD.generate([mesh_nodes], context) and OctaBaker.bake_to_file(). Works with Godot 4 (Forward+ and Mobile renderers). How to use: 1. Enable the plugin under Project Settings > Plugins. 2. Select 3D meshes in your scene. 3. Click "Octahedral Impostor LOD > Bake Selected..." in the 3D viewport toolbar. 4. Set options and press Bake.
