Spent some time yesterday working on a quick tool that gathers lod groups and combines the meshes for each step on each group into a bigger lod group. This works really well for larger modularly built environmental structures and collections of meshes, needlessly being separated, causing more draw calls to happen.
What's not shown in this video is the ability to combine several different meshes into one as long as it's marked with a "m:" prefix under the combine component.
And of course it's made with quick iteration times in mind!
