That means, I am only able to give generic guidelines and hints to send you off to find and test for yourself and share your results. I did some testing in the different games, but finding the best combinations of options and settings requires lots of testing and are a matter of personal opinion and which game is used, the load order, mods, even different worldspaces probably. However, these tools provide more options and higher resolutions (use the 圆4 version if there are memory errors because you believe you require 4k or higher) and can be updated to add more useful features and options. These tools generate LOD meshes and textures "exactly" like CK, but not like the meshes and textures which are shipping with the games (they are often manually edited). Ask specific questions about terrain LOD in this thread for a more in-depth explanation if required and share feedback (with screenshots) about results or problems. Read the hints that are shown when the mouse pointer rests on a setting.
See the included Terrain-LOD-Readme.txt for a brief explanation of the settings for terrain LOD generation.
