SimplyFive LOD Generator for Blender (ENG)
A Blender add-on that generates a set of LOD meshes (Level of Detail) from the active object, using the meshoptimizer library. For each mesh you can create up to 5 simplified versions with individual aggressiveness settings; simplification can take UV unwrapping (including multiple UV channels), normals, vertex colors (transferred, and usable as an importance map), and materials into account.
