QUESTION how to remove LODs from my project?

[Deadly_Silent]

I am still new to modding in general and struggling to understand how the LODs files work. I used the 370z model from the original game and kept changing on it, but i faced some error codes while launching the race (similar Images for the errors: https://imgur.com/a/3jimq). And after that, the race launches just fine. If possible, i want to remove all LOD files completely to avoid this problem and i want to know how to do it.

note #1: I understand what are the purpuse of the LOD files but i dont know how to remove them. Thankfully my pc can handle it without these files.

note #2: Each time i try to remove the files and edit the LODs file i keep getting race canceled from CM and never properly start the race like i used to before. Here is the lod file text:

[COCKPIT_HR]
DISTANCE_SWITCH=8


[LOD_0]

FILE=nissan_370z.kn5
IN=0
OUT=15

[LOD_1]
FILE=nissan_370z_lodB.kn5
IN=15
OUT=45

[LOD_2]
FILE=nissan_370z_lodC.kn5
IN=45
OUT=220

[LOD_3]
FILE=nissan_370z_lodD.kn5
IN=220
OUT=2000

Note #1: Check below for solution.

@luchian , I hope to hear from you on this situation, i have been surfing the forms with no clue of my problem for months now. Sadly, the crash logs from Assetto Corsa doesn't even appear, but the content manager hints on the problem with this and i dont know what does it mean at all

code:
Error might have something to do with:

AC\blurredobjects.cpp (66): BlurredObjects::BlurredObjects
AC\caravatar.cpp (754): CarAvatar::initCommonPostPhysics
AC\caravatar.cpp (909): CarAvatar::CarAvatar
AC\sim.cpp (1446): Sim::addCar
AC\racemanager.cpp (462): RaceManager::initOffline
AC\racemanager.cpp (174): RaceManager::loadSessions
AC\sim.cpp (320): Sim::Sim
AC\splashscreen.cpp (319): SplashScreen:ostRender
AC\game.cpp (181): Game:nIdle
AC\game.cpp (210): Game::run
AC\acs.cpp (477): wWinMain
f:\dd\vctools\crt\crtw32\dllstuff\crtexe.c (618): __tmainCRTStartup

thanks alot,
@Deadly_Silent

Note #1:
It turns out that this code referred to a missing object due to an error in the naming of some objects that didn't match the ones in the data files.

[COCKPIT_HR]
DISTANCE_SWITCH=0

IN=0
OUT=600

that should do the trick

@Alex V. ,
I want to thank you for your reply. Yes to remove the LODs all you have to do is to change the Lods file from the data file by removing all Lods codes except [LOD_0]. then, set the distance by changing the IN value to zero and the OUT value to any number like 600 or more. after that you can delete the lods.kn5 files safely after testing it with no problems at all. It turns out that my problem was in the naming of some objects that didn't match the naming in the data files.

thank you again.

Hello Alex V here is my lods.


[COCKPIT_HR]
DISTANCE_SWITCH=0

[LOD_0]
FILE=toyota_altezza_v1.kn5
IN=0
OUT=2000


When I zoom in on the car, it disappears completely, only the shadow of the car remains, yet the value in IN is 0, I don't understand why this problem persists. Is there another file to modify to make my car appear in zoom? thanks bro

Your error most likely has nothing to do with LODs but with blurred objects, which are defined in blured_objects.ini in car's data. Try to rename that file to something temporary and you shouldnt get this error, but blurred objects mostly used for spinning wheels objects wont work on the car until you will refer to them correctly in the ini file.

LODs are just separate models which appear according to the distance from the camera. If they dont have all mandatory nulls (check pipeline) or objects refered in cars data, the car won't load.
