Lod fade node not working

Postby GeorgeV » Wed Sep 05, 2018 1:14 pm

Hello,

I am using Amplify shader 1.5.6, and i have problem with Lod fade node to make it work, i followed instruction on your wiki page and forum post viewtopic.php?f=23&t=732,
but still have problem.

When i have everything set in shader for LoD fade, mesh just disappear and appear when lod transition happen but when transition end again cant be seen.

If you need more detail about my shader, screenshot or something i can provide.

thanks

Thank you for the sample, I understand what you meant now. As mentioned in the LOD Fade node Wiki Node page, the value only represents the fade created by LODGroups and returns 0 when not fading, this means that some additional logic might be necessary when the objects aren't fading but are still being rendered.

A simple Compare node should do it.

Hope it helps!
