Hello, Engineer,

after the issue was investigated by our art team, it turned out that there is no issue, really.

The reason why you are seeing the LODs switching so early and so close to your character is simply the fact that the game is running on Low graphical preset.

There are standardized distances for all the blocks which are set just for the High quality preset. The Medium and Low quality distances are automatically calculated based on the High settings distances.

As this method is consistent with all other blocks, there is no point to change it just for the window one.

Moreover, when you are playing on Low graphical preset, this should be expected price, to have the game in lower visual quality. Also these fast switches have their purpose which is to improve performance.

Hope you understand the reasoning. Will close this thread.

Kind Regards

i think you may have missed my point, im fully aware the existence of LOD system which is also why i specifically mentioned that im on low model quality

the issue that im meant to express is the fact that the window edge is mis-aligned, rather then the edge been sharp or hard, and that issue is not from the LOD system but rather just the LOD model have the vertex off, and for better explaination, ima attach a few screenshot

(i imported the round window model into blender, and for good measure, it crashed twice, which means this is legit)

it is not the worlds most obvious thing, but looking at the left side edge, which is also the bottom edge of the window, when viewed from below, that edge is misaligned

to make it more obvious:

the same happenes on the LOD1 as well, which is what i have in my screenshot

to act more hacky and experience and know what im doing, theres the fancy wireframe sideview aswell

i used lod1 here, for clean showcasing. your art team will understand those screenshot better, but to be simple, this is what the top edge look like, which is built correctly (everything aligned)

and this picture below is the bottom edge

from the red arrow, the inner side wireframe viewed from the side seems suddenly messier when compare to how it looked like in the upper edge

this is a noticeable error, it might not be big, but this is an error

Hello, Please Pick a Name,

thanks for coming back and making the issue more clear.

After closer look with artists, we really think this is broken.

I will switch this thread back to Reported awaiting fix, as I made new ticket in our internal system.
