Abstract
A method includes accessing a first object in a virtual environment, the first object representing a first asset at a first level of detail (LoD). A second object is generated to represent the first asset at a second LoD having decreased complexity. The method further includes determining a first importance value for the first asset and, based on the first importance value, selecting the first object to represent the first asset. Additionally, the method includes accessing a third object representing the second asset at the first LoD and generating a fourth object representing the second asset at the second LoD. The method further includes determining a second importance value, lower than the first importance value, for the second asset and selecting the fourth object to represent the second asset. The method further includes causing a client device to update a display of the virtual environment by transmitting the selected objects.
