Description

LODGroup lets you group multiple Renderers into LOD levels.

This can be used to switch between different LOD levels at runtime based on size on screen.

Static Properties

crossFadeAnimationDurationThe cross-fading animation duration in seconds. ArgumentException will be thrown if it is set to zero or a negative value.

Properties

animateCrossFadingSpecify if the cross-fading should be animated by time. The animation duration is specified globally as crossFadeAnimationDuration.
enabledAllows you to enable or disable the LODGroup.
fadeModeThe LOD fade mode used.
lastLODBillboardSpecify whether the last LOD level is a BillboardRenderer.
localReferencePointThe local reference point against which the LOD distance is calculated.
lodCountThe number of LOD levels.
sizeThe size of the LOD object in local space.

Public Methods

ForceLODDisable automatic LOD selection based on camera distance by forcing a specific LOD level, or revert to the default automatic behavior by passing a negative value as parameter.
GetLODsReturns the array of LODs.
RecalculateBoundsRecalculate the bounding region for the LODGroup. This process can be slow. To avoid lag, call this function infrequently.
SetLODsSet the LODs for the LOD group. This removes any existing LODs configured on the LODGroup.

Inherited Members

Properties

gameObjectThe game object this component is attached to. A component is always attached to a game object.
tagThe tag of this game object.
transformThe Transform attached to this GameObject.
hideFlagsShould the object be hidden, saved with the Scene or modifiable by the user?
nameThe name of the object.

Public Methods

BroadcastMessageCalls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object or any of its children.
CompareTagChecks the GameObject's tag against the defined tag.
GetComponentGets a reference to a component of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified.
GetComponentInChildrenGets a reference to a component of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified, or any child of the GameObject.
GetComponentIndexGets the index of the component on its parent GameObject.
GetComponentInParentGets a reference to a component of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified, or any parent of the GameObject.
GetComponentsGets references to all components of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified.
GetComponentsInChildrenGets references to all components of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified, and any child of the GameObject.
GetComponentsInParentGets references to all components of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified, and any parent of the GameObject.
SendMessageCalls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object.
SendMessageUpwardsCalls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object and on every ancestor of the behaviour.
TryGetComponentGets the component of the specified type, if it exists.
GetInstanceIDGets the instance ID of the object.
ToStringReturns the name of the object.

Static Methods

DestroyRemoves a GameObject, component or asset.
DestroyImmediateDestroys the object obj immediately. You are strongly recommended to use Destroy instead.
DontDestroyOnLoadDo not destroy the target Object when loading a new Scene.
FindAnyObjectByTypeRetrieves any active loaded object of Type type.
FindFirstObjectByTypeRetrieves the first active loaded object of Type type.
FindObjectsByTypeRetrieves a list of all loaded objects of Type type.
InstantiateClones the object original and returns the clone.
InstantiateAsyncCaptures a snapshot of the original object (that must be related to some GameObject) and returns the AsyncInstantiateOperation.

Operators

boolDoes the object exist?
operator !=Compares if two objects refer to a different object.
operator ==Compares two object references to see if they refer to the same object.
