Editing Multiple LOD Prefabs at Once

I have several prefabs that has LODs and I want to adjust the distance which the various models swap out. I want the all the prefabs to share the same swap out distance. At the moment, I'm resorting to going through each prefab to make the changes but it's extremely time consuming. Is there a way to do this en mass?

 

Why they have different distances? When prefab is created by default has same percent between LOD.
You can adjust your Bias value for share all LOD at once, no other method can be normalize percent LOD...

 

Hrm, let me add a screen to help show what it is I'm asking.

Is there a way to adjust the LOD percentange bar in the inspector for one prefab and have those values applied instantaneously to other prefabs?

 

This is a really ancient post, but I would also like to see if anyone has found a good way to do this because I have hundreds of small objects that I have LoDs on in a bigger prefab that I don't want to have to manually change the LoD on individually.

 

I have the same issue, still cant work out how to edit multiple lods! Ridiculous really.

 

Same issue... Ill bump this thread... If I find a solution ill bump it again.

 

Lol well this was a sad thread to stumble on lol. currently changing every LOD group manually. Hoped there was a solution

 

bump, same issue, please fix this... it's sad

 

I think there is the possibility to make an editor script do this.

 

Bringing this zombie back to life for anyone else who happens across it. This is brute force and works for my personal needs can be altered pretty easily. This code assumes LOD 0 -> LOD 3 -> Culled levels. Gives 100%, 15%, 10%, 5%, 1% camera distance set. Select the prefabs and run the menu command.

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEditor;
2. using UnityEngine;
3.  
4. public class MultiSetLOD : MonoBehaviour
5. {
6.   [MenuItem("Component/LOD/Set Default LOD Range", false, 0)]
7.   static void DoSetDefaultLODRange()
8.   {
9.     var list = Selection.GetFiltered<GameObject>(SelectionMode.TopLevel);
10.     foreach (var go in list)
11.     {
12.       var d = go.GetComponent<LODGroup>();
13.       if (null != d)
14.       {
15.         var lods = d.GetLODs();
16.         lods[0].screenRelativeTransitionHeight = 0.15f;
17.         lods[1].screenRelativeTransitionHeight = 0.10f;
18.         lods[2].screenRelativeTransitionHeight = 0.05f;
19.         lods[3].screenRelativeTransitionHeight = 0.01f;
20.         d.SetLODs(lods);
21.         PrefabUtility.RecordPrefabInstancePropertyModifications(d);
22.       }
23.     }
24.   }
25. }

 

goddamn you madman lol, ITS ALIVE. this worked properly for me too.

 

Making this a Frankenstein, This upgraded script does not care about the number of the LODs and sets the LOD dynamically. And also deals w/ culling (at 1%). Perhaps it could be useful!

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEditor;
2. using UnityEngine;
3.  
4. public class MultiSetLOD : MonoBehaviour
5. {
6.     [MenuItem("Component/LOD/Set Default LOD Range", false, 0)]
7.     static void DoSetDefaultLODRange()
8.     {
9.         var list = Selection.GetFiltered<GameObject>(SelectionMode.TopLevel);
10.  
11.         foreach (var go in list)
12.         {
13.             var d = go.GetComponent<LODGroup>();
14.             if (null != d)
15.             {
16.                 var lods = d.GetLODs();
17.                 int j = lods.Length-1;
18.                 for (int i = 0; i < j; i++)
19.                 {
20.                     var x = ((i + 1f) / (j + 1f));
21.                     Debug.Log(x);
22.                     lods[i].screenRelativeTransitionHeight = 1f-x;
23.                 }
24.                 lods[lods.Length-1].fadeTransitionWidth = 0.01f;
25.                 d.SetLODs(lods);
26.                 d.RecalculateBounds();
27.                 PrefabUtility.RecordPrefabInstancePropertyModifications(d);
28.             }
29.         }
30.     }
31. }

 

A quick fix for some people might be an increse of the LoD Bias. Project settings>Quality>Level of Detail.

 

Thank you for this!
