First of all: Awesome new version, the performance has improved a lot.

Description

Oak trees seem to change their volume and even their shape in different LOD levels. As shown in the screenshots below the two LOD levels look like completely different trees.

Part of the changes with trees includes single static LOD1 and LOD2 meshes, so there will be times when the change between LOD0 (with dynamic branch placement) will look different to the LOD1/LOD2 version. This change was done as a trade off for performance, however we are interested in feedback like this about if we need to expand on the LOD1 versions.

So just put up with it for now, and if it's a still an issue further down the line for a lot of people we'll expand on LOD1 variation.
