The LoD Thread - Report "Level of Detail" Issues here

[novationx]

First of all I would like to ask if this is 'LoD' is done 'manually'? Like, do you create high & low quality versions of each block? Wouldn't it be great if the game would look really clean on lower settings with not a lot of detail instead of what we have now?

Anyways, it's very annoying to see these little graphical changes pop-up everywhere when you're playing. It's everywhere and once you realise its there ( like me ) then it becomes distracting.

Then there are also those bugged shadows which makes everything uglier than it should be.

Ugly Shadows Everywhere!



Level of Detail
Good ( 1cm left of my crosshair - the border )


Bad ( 1cm left of my crosshair - the border )



If you want, you could look your game look awesome on low settings which is what most players have.

Anyways, is this the convential way to have performance boosts? I never had this kind of experience in other games.

you can't always have full details with endless distance

There should be some kind of smooth transition between LoD models and mipmaps.

I am very aware of that, but Eole asked me to keep reporting when it are "obvious" "bugs".
Trust me, he can fix this and then everyone will benefit.
