Build type: Binary

Build version: 4.18.2-3794801+++UE4+Release-4.18

Description: When exporting static meshes from the editor as FBX the exporter ignores the “Level of Detail” option and creates a LOD group in the fbx.

Repro steps:

  1. Select an actor in your level that contains lods
  2. File > Export Selected
  3. Untick the Level of Detail flag
  4. Import the exported FBX file into Maya
  5. Observe how the fbx contains a LOD group anyway

Hi,

Simply select each of the LOD’s and un-parent them. You’ll find that they
are all there.
