Yeah, there’s really no other solution. I’ve been trying to find a good one too. For what I know, there’s two work around. 1. Disable occlusion culling when in this dungeon (using collision box and blueprint logic). 2. Merge the static mesh actors into larger ones so that it won’t get culled that easily. You can merge static mesh actors easily in unreal engine.
