Forge FX LOD Creator v1.2 — Blender 4.5 & 5.0

Create optimized LOD meshes quickly and directly inside Blender.

Forge FX LOD Creator is a lightweight Blender add-on designed to simplify the process of creating Level of Detail (LOD) meshes for games, real-time projects, visualization, and asset optimization.

Select your original mesh and generate individual LOD versions with a single click. Each LOD level can be adjusted independently, giving you control over how aggressively your model is reduced without having to repeatedly configure Blender's Decimate tools.

Features:

• One-click creation of LOD1, LOD2, LOD3, and LOD4

• Independent reduction settings for each LOD

• Default levels of 50%, 25%, 10%, and 5%

• Preserves existing UV maps and material assignments

• Automatically duplicates and names LOD meshes

• Keeps your original model untouched

• Simple, streamlined interface

• Designed for Blender 4.5

• Ideal for Unreal Engine, Unity, mobile games, real-time visualization, and optimized 3D assets

No complicated setup. Select your mesh, choose your LOD level, and generate an optimized version.
