Grouping building modules

Hello, Im trying to make a building to be use in the background of a scene.

This one will be closer to the camera so i modeled it with more details and modular pieces, a lot of pieces are INSTANCES. In total there are like 1000 geos in the model.

To move it all together I grouped it as a BLUEPRINT, but then is super heavy to mvoe in the scene, and to test the shot i want to clone this building like 20 times but the blueprint works very slow and is giving me issues

There are some tips how to pack /group this building models?
also if there is a course or tutorials how to handle better this models, please share it, because im sure im doing something wrong :sweat_smile:

Thanks

Are you using hierarchical instances static mesh components in your building blueprint or are they just copies?

the pieces are all instances, there are 50 static mesh models imported in the project

and together they make the 1000 piece building

You should convert the meshes to either HISM or ISM components. The instances in the selves are just clones and are all sent separately to the GPU. With the component approach the mesh is sent once to the gpu and offset directly there skipping CPU calculations and reducing draw calls.
