3D modelers apply many processes to improve the look and usability of their assets when creating the characters, props, and sets that feature in your favorite video games and films. Not only does LOD support faster rendering, it does so in a way that doesn't negatively impact the visual quality of an asset.

Almost every 3D asset is painted using only one atlas texture. What’s more, it’s easy to imitate movement by creating a simple animation, as we did in the booster’s model. To solve the problem we rearranged the mesh and added some edge loops along track parts. Creating animations for animals wasn’t an easy part.

This work involved adding support for the FBX 3D asset exchange format to Godot. The first version of our FBX importer was added in Godot 3.2 , and relied on the Open Asset Importer library ( Assimp ). Maya is one of the most used 3D assets creation tools in the game industry, and IMVU needed good support for its FBX files.

Mainly I focused on generating grass that bends in the wind and some fern like plants, but what comes next is usable for all kind of meshes. Batching means to combine mesh objects that share the same material or that are marked as static in the Unity inspector. In my case I had terrible FPS with just some thousand mesh instances.
