Is Unreal making an auto-LOD tool in the near future or should I invest in a Simplygon license?

Is Unreal making an auto-LOD tool in the near future or should I invest in a Simplygon license?

The roadmap is publicly visible here: Trello
Note that, even if something appears highly-voted and soon-scheduled, things sometimes change with the weather, so until it ships, it’s not shipped.
Also, I can’t even find a polygon simplification tool at all on the roadmap, so it’s unlikely to be near term.

Simplygon is good software. If you need its functionality, it’s certainly better to pay for that than to build your own :slight_smile:

Unless you are making over 100k I don’t think you need to ‘invest’ anything. They have a free cloud service for “Personal” use but the personal use seems to be anyone who’s company doesn’t make 100k gross revenue. If you are making over 100k then I hate you and you can pay the license fee! Just kidding.
