LOD Planets in Unity #2 | Culling and Performance | Programming Projects 1.1

The second part of my series on LOD planets! In this one, we implement some performance upgrades that will make the planet run smoother both now and in the future. Note that the culling featured in this video has little performance gain right now, but will be beneficial when I add more advanced terrain in the future. It isn't as much about easing the rendering load as it is about lessening the number of calculations that I will need later to, let's say, elevate the terrain. The update functionality that I added made a huge difference though, nearly doubling the FPS! If you want to know how it's made, watch the video ;) GitHub: https://github.com/HolmanDev/LOD-Planets-in-Unity The next video will be about covering up the gaps between the different detail levels.
