Gradual vs Quantized LOD

[PacyFire]

A fading system is easier to implement and would dramatically reduce the jarring jumps as well. You can vote here:

Implement some type of LOD fading system to help reduce terrain and object pop-in

Sometimes I’m flying around terrain or points of interest such as the Rock of Gibraltar but the object detail is bad until I approach very close to the object. The same thing happens with objects at airports such as taxiway signs, other planes on the ground, baggage carts, etc. Some other games use an object fade-in approach to reduce the “popping” at different LOD levels. Please implement something like that to improve graphics quality and realism. Thanks!
