In this blog, we will look at five different tools for automated vegetation asset optimization. We will go in order from those suitable for closer distances to those to be used when the vegetation is further away. simplygon.com/posts/aba6ae7b… #gamedev

#TechArt tip of the day: If a triangle is never seen by the player, don’t include it in your game. Here’s how to do visibility culling in #Unity with Simplygon. simplygon.com/posts/bf1c6967…

Ever tried baking materials behind glass? This post breaks down alpha‑blended compute shaders for diffuse, roughness, metallic & normals in Simplygon. 🔗simplygon.com/posts/bfd8ce8e… #gamedev #techart

Level up your character LOD pipeline with Simplygon ⚙️ This post covers 3 advanced techniques: 🔨 Quad reduction 🔨 Modular seams 🔨 Simplified shaders via vertex color casting Read more 👇 simplygon.com/posts/2f2ae287… #gamedev

Simplygon's part remover can be used in a reduction pipeline. It allows you to clean up any small disconnected part from your model. Perfect to use in combination with reduction for LOD generation. simplygon.com/posts/7f497e89… #gamedev

Need to batch optimize a library of 3D assets? @simplygon's Python API lets you process entire folders of models to reduce triangle count while maintaining visual fidelity for real‑time use. 🌟 Tutorial: developer.microsoft.com/games/articles…

Simplygon's visibility culling tool lets you remove areas the player never sees. This is perfect for #virtualreality games where the player stays in a fixed position. Here’s how to use it in #Unity: youtu.be/GXa_WDMJSw4

Are you developing a racing game? Then these 5 #gamedev tips on how to improve your vehicle optimization pipeline are for you! simplygon.com/posts/3816dedd…

With vertex weights, you can let artists control the optimization—both UV scaling and geometry quality. This lets you keep your #gamedev 3D content‑optimization pipelines fully automated. Here’s how to do it in #3dsMax with Simplygon. simplygon.com/posts/ae19d96e…

In this blog post, we show how to use Simplygon to optimize a #Unity scene with visibility culling. This allows us to remove geometry that is never visible from the player’s point of view, reducing both overdraw and the number of triangles. simplygon.com/posts/bf1c6967… #gamedev

Congratulations to our friends at Pearl Abyss on launching #CrimsonDesert! We are honored that our technology helped to optimize the seamless open world of Pywel. Reclaim power. Reach beyond. crimsondesert.pearlabyss.com

Why introduce new materials when remeshing? In this blog, we show how to bake proxy textures back into the original atlas. This allows you to reuse the same material for your distant proxy models. simplygon.com/posts/453cebf8… #gamedev

The Part Remover is a great addition to any reduction pipeline. It removes small, disconnected parts that can otherwise interfere with clean reductions. simplygon.com/posts/7f497e89… #gamedev

Optimizing thin, perforated structures (bridges, scaffolding, trusses) breaks traditional reduction due to too many holes and poor connectivity. This post shows how Billboard Cloud Outer Shell impostors preserve silhouette and density. ➜ simplygon.com/posts/a2ea9a66… #gamedev

We’re honored to once again co‑host Chief Tech Omnium at #GDC!

Different meshes. Different topology. Same LOD. In this post, we show how to reuse a single proxy model across multiple assets using Simplygon’s Surface Mapper. 🔗 simplygon.com/posts/10e92823… #gamedev

#VirtualReality games are among the hardest to develop and optimize: low‑end hardware, high visual quality demands, and strict framerate requirements all collide. In this blog, we share the tools that help you hit your performance targets. developer.microsoft.com/en-us/games/ar… #gamedev

In the latest Simplygon #3dsmax blog, we showcase how to influence geometric quality and UV scaling in a combined quad‑reduction and material‑merging pipeline. This allows your artists to guide the optimization using vertex colors. simplygon.com/posts/ae19d96e… #gamedev
