Why we like it

Super Optimizer & Quick Lods earns its place in the superhive library by putting scene analysis and LOD generation into one non-destructive addon. Support for Blender 4.0 through 4.4 and any render engine makes it a practical fit for scene cleanup and export prep.

What is Super Optimizer & Quick Lods?

Super Optimizer & Quick Lods is a Blender addon that helps you analyze, clean, and optimize 3D scenes. It surfaces mesh complexity, material usage, and unlinked data, while offering one-click LOD generation and batch processing for larger projects.

The Scene Analyzer lists mesh stats such as vertex count and materials by object or collection, with view modes for Object or Collection insights and threshold-based filtering to flag high, medium, or low poly assets. A one-click generator creates two auto-decimated LODs with clean naming and grouping, and the same can be batch-generated for every object in a selected collection. A wireframe toggle and an orphan detector for unused meshes, materials, images, and textures round out the toolkit, alongside a reset and cleanup option that refreshes the optimizer state.

The addon is non-destructive and lightweight, making no changes to your original data. It runs on Blender 4.0 and later and works with any render engine, including Cycles and Eevee. It ships as a .py file under the GPL license, with ongoing updates and dedicated support for installation and usage.

Frequently asked questions

Does Super Optimizer & Quick Lods work with Blender 4.4?

Super Optimizer & Quick Lods supports Blender 4.0 and later, with listed compatibility spanning versions 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, and 4.4. It also works with any render engine, including Cycles and Eevee, so it fits into scenes regardless of how you plan to render them. If you run a newer Blender release than those listed, check the developer's page to confirm current version support before installing the addon into your setup.

Does Super Optimizer & Quick Lods change my original scene data?

Super Optimizer & Quick Lods is described as non-destructive and lightweight, making no changes to your original data. Its analysis tools report mesh stats, material usage, and unused meshes, materials, images, and textures without altering them, and its LOD generator creates auto-decimated copies with clean naming and grouping rather than editing your source objects. That lets you inspect and optimize scenes while keeping the originals intact throughout your project.
