Deforming prefabs with LODs along a spine

[_Aka_]

Hi again,

Yes, it is possible to combine mesh deformation of multiple objects and LOD. This is how I would make it:

1. Create a template generator that is setup to deform mesh along the needed path.
   
2. Supposing you have 2 meshes, and 3 LODs each, make 6 instances of this generator, one for each LOD level/mesh combination. The difference between these generators will be the input mesh. Provide the correct mesh LOD for each generator.
   
3. Export the result of your generators (see the "Save output to scene" button in the generator toolbar). This way you can delete the generators if you need to.
   
4. Create 2 gamebojects having the LODGroup component: https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/LODGroup.html
   
5. Setup the component to use the meshes from output of your generators.
   

I will try to make this process easier in the future, by providing for example a Create LOD GameObject, which would take multiple meshes as input, and generate a gameobject having a LODGroup using the given meshes. Any suggestion or feedback is welcome.

Have a nice day
