There's actually a mod on here that lets you quick-toggle full-detail vs LOD meshes, the former single-digits my framerate but makes for better screenshots.

Anyway, since LOD is based on camera distance, and he's talking about moving the camera WAY back and zooming WAY in to mimic orthographic with a perspective camera*, the LOD system might make things look far worse than they should.

*Orthographic camera 'rays' are parallel, so the more parallel you can get the perspective ones the closer it is. Physical photographers sometimes play with this, I've seen photos of like a long row of parking meters at such a focus / depth of field that they all look the same size and slightly offset, but I can't find the right term to find an example.)

@HGscMENTOR - Orthographic cameras don't have perspective, so (a) rotating things in them feels really weird and (b) you can use them to replicated things like tile-based isometric views (older sim city games, older xcoms, etc) with a 3D system.

Here's some projections, basically everything but the perspective one is orthographic (at least as far as 3D graphics cares) https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/41/Graphical_projection_comparison.png

LOD is Level of Detail, specifically a technique for using different meshes at different camera ranges, sometimes down to 'not showing the object at all' with enough distance. The less-than-max-detail meshes are often called things like LOD meshes or just LODs.

@SQRL
A little help, here, please?

Adjustable Field of View Description is too hard to understand.
I don't know what an ORTHOGRAPHIC CAMERA is.
FOV probably stands for Field of View, but I don't know what LOD stands for.

Maybe you could put a notation at the top of the description for those of us who are not as high-techy-techy as you are?

It's just a thought – no offense meant – just trying to figure out what you are offering.

Is this something to be used in conjunction with Tony56a's First Person Mod? If so, a description in layman's language of what it does would be wonderful.

Thanks, either way.

too bad doesn't work with updated Dynamic Resolution.

(mod通过改良的话)能否实现全景视角?
