Material LOD ​

Overview. ​

When using a Pipeline object, the whole process of combining and setting up a new baked material is automatic, but when using the processing objects individually a series of discrete steps need to be performed in order for the output scene to be coherent.

1. Process the input scene with a Processor, generating a MappingImage.
2. Use the original materials and MappingImage as inputs to MaterialCasters to generate new textures.
3. Setup the new material with references to the new textures in the processed scene.
