Props remain visible
Props disappear and only appear if you come close again
All
Can you share screenshots of your settings?
I was trying to get the result that you’re having but had no luck with that. And then found out that spawned props are ALWAYS loaded into a memory. Mb something changed.
Also, do you have world streaming enabled?
You can reproduce in my island Frozen Lake
But I need to see your prop blueprint setting to understand what is going on
will props still disappear if you change mesh?
Every color is a different mesh ( and different blueprint)
I suspect my bp settings are simply ignored. Any particular settings you are after?
I used
Never distance cull
spatially loaded no
Use Lod 0
Autocompute lod distances ( tried on and off)
I also spawn at different scale and I do not think I turned on streaming for this island.
Did you set the lod on the static mesh directly ?
I think I had auto and 3 lods it didn’t work also. What do you think I should try? Readd lods?
i had a similar issue and it was the lod and collision thing on the static mesh direct i change this to lod 0 and collision 1 and it worked iirc.
This must override the bp itself somehow. If its still an issue you could also set a material thats world space and increase the bounding box this way i think itll always be loaded aswell.
Test the static mesh thing first tho as i had the same issue and this fixed it for me.
I did try to find a workaround (incl switch to lod0) before posting this bug - no luck. a year ago everything simply worked
I am thinking how to share my mesh and bp. Maybe I migrate it tomorrow and zip uassets you think it will work?
I aint on uefn until later but could you either upload the mesh or send me it on discord and i will test it out too
Cool thanks for advice
FORT-1003637 has been created and its status is ‘Unconfirmed’. This is now in a queue to be reproduced and confirmed.
I did some tests and for me prop starts culling only when I’m getting extremely far away. Mb having streaming off overrides some stuff, because I couldn’t force my prop to disappear as close as you showed on your video. (I had streaming turned on)
But I found a way to increase its draw distance. You will need to play with this and decide what best suits your goal - ideally without disabling distance culling since it can have huge impact on a performance down the line. If my settings wont change anything - try them with enabled streaming.
P.S.: I set mesh to have only LOD0 but I don’t think it’s affecting your problem since its looks like a purely draw distance problem.
And also, as a conclusion, I think its safe to say that spawned props using blueprint settings as expected (its just hlod+draw distance system being confusing as always)
Today I set the replication setting Net Cull Distance Squared to 47192408588288.0 and it fixed everything! Thanks for sharing the settings with us.
I thought selecting Never Distance Cull would be enough but it is not.
