Level of Detail, in theory things look the same but use a lower detailed mesh in the distance. For lower end machines it means you get the same visual performance with better frame rates. Somewhere in the forum there is a quote, "it runs on my machine so why should I bother with poly counts and LOD" from an American content creator. At extremes it means you can run on a standard office laptop, ie Middleton for Laptops. If you're running assets without LOD typically you need an RTX 4070 or above.
Cheerio John

Thanks for that John, i know nothing about model creation. The 4070 was all i could afford when i put this machine together in August 2024. I would have preferred a Ti or a 4080.

This is the logic that caused a high number (if not the majority) of softwares to become bloatwares because, yes until very recently high-end hardwares became more and more affordable so the software developpers became kind of lazy and stopped trying to optimize their stuff to run on low-end PCs in which before they didn't have any choice to do otherwise due to the scarcity of high-end PCs.
Here's my latest reskin. After a year working on kettles, I wanted to get back to my BR blue diesel roots. Remember when 'Trans-Pennine Express' wasn't a dodgy train operating company who's trains get stuck outside Stockport? Remember the glamour of specially designed, powerful 6-car DMUs gliding over the Pennines? You're thinking of the class 124!
.... well done, looks brilliant - I remember those long nights in g-max on a Asus Laptop when I was away from home with work !Interesting contrast with the original. But my thanks to Kemplen for his original work all those years ago.
Looks superb! Will you be making it available? With kemplen's permission of course!Interesting contrast with the original. But my thanks to Kemplen for his original work all those years ago.

Yes, absolutely I'd like to make it available, with Kemplen's permission (was going to ask privately, but may as well ask publicly now!) Will need to bring it up to build 3.5 in the config. Also would like to look at some headcode options and maybe using WagonX scripting etc. If we can get it up to the DLS, I'm delighted we can bring back an old favourite.
