Works without LOD 
Can’t see any reason we can’t have the choice with LOD?
Hi, Thank you for this, I have added it as a feature request. In the mean time it’s fairly easy to make your own custom LOD script, to add more control over the process.
- Make a folder on your PC for the script and files
- Go through the process of exporting a model, but really we are just going to save the model export settings using this button and save the .XML file to your folder named “exportABC.xml”.
- Do the same thing using the simplify tool, and name the XML “simplifySet”
- Make a subfolder called Models
- Open up a text editor and save the following script to the main folder as “customLOD.bat”
set app="C:\Program Files\Capturing Reality\RealityCapture\RealityCapture.exe"
set workingDir=%~dp0
set /p ModelName=[what is the name of the model you want LODs for?]
%app% -delegateTo * -selectModel "%ModelName%" -exportSelectedModel "%workingDir%Models\%ModelName%_LOD0.abc" "%workingDir%\exportABC.xml"
%app% -delegateTo * -simplify "%workingDir%\simplifySet.xml" -exportSelectedModel "%workingDir%Models\%ModelName%_LOD1.abc" "%workingDir%\exportABC.xml"
%app% -delegateTo * -simplify "%workingDir%\simplifySet.xml" -exportSelectedModel "%workingDir%Models\%ModelName%_LOD2.abc" "%workingDir%\exportABC.xml"
%app% -delegateTo * -simplify "%workingDir%\simplifySet.xml" -exportSelectedModel "%workingDir%Models\%ModelName%_LOD3.abc" "%workingDir%\exportABC.xml"
- Open the project you want to run the script on
- Double click on customLOD.bat
- The script will ask you which model to do LODs on, type in the name of the model and press enter.
This will save the LODs to the Models folder
you can now play with the script and adapt it to very specific needs, each level of simplification could have it’s own unique XML, or could even include normal maps
