This is how it "should" work....I've not used it though. In any case this is some very nifty stuff..."great work" is a sore understatement here....especially if it was coded by one person..."WOW" is my opinion..getting this to a dll will drastically improve it's speed too. One question, is it UV compatible....does it preserve UV's?

This would be VERY HELPFUL! Any hope ? I hope this will be available for SCULPT MODE TOO !

This would be VERY HELPFUL!

Any hope ?

Why not just use a multires and swap out which one is rendered based on distance from the camera? Also, how about making it available as a Node or letting Weight Paint modify how many polygons are created on a mesh? mrmowgli I like i, sort of like a dynamic LOD?

In theory I like this idea even better than the demolition script. Keep up the good work, Mr. Kostack! I'm downloading it! ;-) Whew, that's amazing!

Would probably be slow though. A LOD modifier would be very useful since you could actively decimate. Would probably be slow though.

LOD reduces poly count as objects get further from the camera. This takes a mesh and adds more detail to the mesh when it gets close to the camera. Big difference. @Schnappi: Actually it's the opposite of LOD. LOD reduces poly count as objects get further from the camera.

Im not sure if it is useful at the end for animation projects but still it shows how powerful blender really is. :) damn, that sounds like a typical LoD implementation for games.
