Thank you for your continued support.

When dithered LOD switches, changes sometimes do not happen smoothly.

This issue still occurs even in the latest version, so I’d appreciate it if you could check it

Since Nanite is now used mainly, LOD may be a legacy feature. However, it still can be used, so I am reporting this.

1) Unzip DitherTest.zip, and start NewMap in PIE.

2) Move the camera forward and backward, and you’ll see the material switch causing flickering.

3) If setting lod.TemporalLag to 1, switches can be slower, which may make it easier to confirm the issue.

In the project, a cube from BasicShapes has been duplicated and its LODs have been created as follows:

LOD0 … Screen Size 1

LOD1 … Screen Size 0.25

LOD2 … Screen Size 0.1

Also, the material is in DitherMat with “Dithered LOD Transition” enabled.
