Level of Detail won't change Triangle/Vertices count

Okay, thanks for the question. I apologize for not marking the ZIP file clearly. In many respects, I'm also a rookie. I hope you don’t mind a novice to answer your question.

(f) (14)_Single.zip and (f) (14)_Separate.zip are both complete Legacy Female Body, the difference between them is whether the meshes are linked or not.

(f) (14)_Single.zip = Linked mesh, only 1 dae file, this's a linkset containing 242 meshes.
(f) (14)_Separate.zip = Unlinked meshes, there're 242 dae files in this zip.

Most people will choose to download (f) (14)_Single.zip, because you can get the complete Legacy Female Body by uploading it once, which is very time-saving. If you choose to use (f) (14)_Separate.zip like me, then uploading at least 241 times.

Next, I will try to be more concise. If there is something wrong, please correct me.↓

𝟏. Make sure you have an unimportant SL ALT account to upload mesh, and put LD5K in that account, because uploading mesh inworld costs money.
𝟐. If the file you downloaded is (f) (14)_Single.zip, after unzip it, you will get a dae file that looks like this [81837F848283887C7976847B86838884].dae.

𝟒. Wear the body alpha layer and attach [BODY]_Legacy_(f)_(1.4) to your avatar, wala, Legacy Female body is onto your avatar now.
𝟓. Of course you don’t like a completely white body, you need to texture the upper and lower body, just unlink [BODY]_Legacy_(f)_(1.4), distinguish the upper and lower body based on the SLUV map, make two LinkSETs, one linkset is upper body, another is lower, and then apply upper/lower body skin texture on face1 of both linkset.
𝟔. Attach both linkset to your avatar. Congratulations, you have completed the production of your personal Legacy Female Body.

The basic steps are probably like this.↑

I hope this answer is useful to you ;) If anyone knows a faster way, I look forward to your guidance, thank you.
