Hi,

I'm not getting any response regarding this from other users, clarification not listed in manual or any tutorial.

I was reading through the manual to fully familiarize myself with WED, MED, SED etc. However, under LoD Manager section of MED I found something strange. Following is the LoD Manager on my end:



But in the manual it says there should be Mesh Reducer and Recalculate in addition to Delete Faces, Delete LoD, and Delete All which are available to me.

I experimented to see if certain conditions does make the other options appear, searched the forum, and searched Google etc. no result in any of them.

Just want whoever going to help me to know that I'm not asking even without trying to find it out by myself. ^^

I think it is because the LOD management is a PRO-only capability.
I too have found it irritating that MED is LOD-tool-crippled for me. (only commercial version).
It would at least be nice if the MED LOD-Tools worked so you could at least LOD
the models properly, and write your own LOD-engine code.
Or at least keep crippled functions COMPLETELY hidden.

Why don't they come out with some new and exciting features for the Pro version and then allow the Commercial version to have the LoD Manager? Because I would really like to have it, please. wink It would save me some time and effort.

gfxExp: Your screen does not look like a Pro Edition. It looks like the free MED version without mesh reducer. What is your version number?

Version 7.04 was a beta version, but I dont think you were beta tester back then. You wont have much luck with this version, but you get a honor title at least. wink

I was not a beta tester, I was given trail of 7.04 by a friend a while ago (I think it's a trail - it seems unregistered). But I have the latest trail now and LOD manager window is there - only no Mesh Reducer and Recalculate same with the 7.04 pro version.

My doubt now is, if the trial version of the latest pro version has it's features disabled also then how does it become a 7.80 Pro trail? ^^'
