🧠 Tips & Fixes from Experience

- Use “Minimal” or “Low Impact” mode after pregeneration LOD chunks are lower quality but still CPU-heavy. - Use “Minimal” or “Low Impact” mode after pregeneration Safe to ignore – they’re just loading timeouts. - Use “Minimal” or “Low Impact” mode after pregeneration Anything beyond 320 LOD chunks can cause major lag or RAM issues. - Use “Minimal” or “Low Impact” mode after pregeneration to avoid stutter.
