Hi Blueblott LOD actually allows you LESS detail! The way its set up with v4.2 you get the hi-res BASE and 3 lower res versions. You can then choose to have lower res on the screen but use the hi-res when rendering. Or you can get it to use the successively lower res versions the further they are from the camera. And only send the resolutions required when rendering. The idea is to speed up the construction of a scene and/or allow more figures in a scene.
