what distances should I make the LOD's for? I'm thinking 70, 150, 256. Does that sound right?
I hope those are unit numbers and not the .qc LOD numbers you're gonna use.
70 is a hella long distance. 256 is absurd.
For comparison the w_sniperrifle has 2 lod models and it switches at 14 and 25:
Code:
$lod 14
{
replacemodel "w_sniperrifle_reference.dmx.smd" "lod1_w_sniperrifle_reference.dmx.smd"
}
$lod 25
{
replacemodel "w_sniperrifle_reference.dmx.smd" "lod2_w_sniperrifle_reference.dmx.smd"
}
Which are very reasonable distances.
All player models have 5 lod models and they switch at 11, 22, 33, 44, 55
So having your first weapons lod swtich at 70 feels a little backwards!
