Hi, i've only seen the example for the 3d meshlet scene when it comes to virtual geometry. I was wondering if it's possible to generate a detailed terrain with meshlets in bevy. Considering i'm trying to implement a detailed terrain, it's probably either that or chunk-based, but if i can do it with meshlets i'd much prefer that. Is there any examples or projects that have tackled this? I'd love to know.

Does your mesh have the geometry for individual pebbles?
Either using meshlet or not I think you still need some kind of chunking/sinking

Hi, no not on that scale, i meant like a landscape terrain, as an example a planet that if you zoom in, you can see the mountains etc. but higher up, they won't be as detailed
it won't be an infinite repeating terrain so i don't need chunking, i have no idea how it works for meshlets but the only reason i would want chunking is so i can make parts less detailed, eg: when it's underwater, those chunks don't need any detail

Hello, I wrote most of the virtual geometry feature.
To answer your question, I have no clue.
You probably could use virtual geometry for terrain. Whether that's a good idea or not, idk.
I'll also warn you that virtual geometry is still a large WIP. Expect bugs and performance issues 🙂
