    I have a issue that I am unable to resolve. It's a bit of mystery to me why this keep happening.

    I followed normal procedure : Created a empty object, applied a LOD-group component and filled it with LOD meshes.

    This is what I get after I baked the models. BigRock_LOD0 seems fine but BigRock_LOD1 is completely black (but you can still see light reflecting of the surface).

    All the BigRock.LOD_ meshes have ''static'' check and enabled.

    -I tried setting the lightmap scale to 1 for all my lod meshes.
    -I tried a custom lightmap unwrap with sufficient padding.
    -I tried letting Unity generate a second uv-set for me.

    Anyone else have any ideas?

    You have to add light probes to add indirect light the lower LODs.

    Thanks for the input, the problem still persist. I have no idea, what could be causing this blackout.

    Can you please report a bug with your scene attached to it, so we can have a look? It should work.
