ATTACHED: Test LOD asset

ENVIRONMENT:

MEMORY: 32GB RAM
GRAPHICS: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770

Steps to Reproduce

FREQUENCY: 3/3
====================================

REPRO STEPS:

  • Open UE4
  • Import a mesh with LODs
  • Create a Blueprint with a Instanced Static Mesh
  • Place in scene next to static mesh LOD

Expected: The mesh LODs will LOD at the same distance

RESULTS: As it stands the LODs are not equal for instance static meshes. The screen distance LODs at different distances than the static mesh version where the LOD screen distances are set.
