BRG Terrain Detail Override

Substitutes a terrain detail prototype with a different prefab at editor time. Add this component to the detail prototype prefab referenced by your terrain.

Why

Default Unity terrain detail prototypes are single-mesh prefabs with no LOD support. This component lets you swap in a replacement prefab — typically one with an LOD Group — so terrain details benefit from LOD transitions and crossfade.

Setup

  1. Select the prefab assigned as a terrain detail prototype
  2. Add the BRG Terrain Detail Override component
  3. Assign your replacement prefab to the Override Prefab field
Property Type Description
Override Prefab GameObject The replacement prefab to use for rendering. Should have a MeshRenderer or LOD Group.

How It Works

The BRG Terrain Registerer resolves all overrides at editor time. When it encounters a detail prototype that has a BRG Terrain Detail Override component, it uses the override prefab instead for all rendering. The resolved prefab list is shown read-only in the terrain registerer inspector.
