Need LOD for the new Scatter Tool

[mathieu_boch]

Hello,
About optimization of large scenes with lot of trees, the new scatter tool doesn't have LOD option. And the rendertimes are just too long with only High Definition tree, and I can't afford to make some Areas for each sequence. Today this feature is really missing, and I can't switch from forest without it.

Thank you

Keep in mind that multiple levels of detail based on the distance from the camera are not really needed

But for lot of trees with opciaty maps in leaves, rendertimes is about 2x faster with LOD (without opacity)

I understand you. We want to do function for placing different models by the color map, but it is not priority now. Use trees without the opacity, trees with modelled leaves.
