𝐇𝐋𝐎𝐃 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐞! The talk by @jesperTingvall Simplygon will share their knowledge on asset optimization for massive open-world games. This talk will cover the key ingredient for achieving smooth performance – HLOD. It will cover what it is and which tools are suitable for generating HLOD for static meshes and vegetation. To put theory into practice, we'll do performance comparison in Unity and Unreal Engine 5. The talk: youtu.be/vLcycD78Az0 #gamedev #indiedev #gic #gic26
