Pollys Please
I triangulated all of my pollys and went to model info. Here is the output:
Group "WORLD", v 0, s 0, kids 2 Object "ellipse", v 200, s 361, kids 0 [subdivided (1) v 1120, s 1081] * Object "block", v 386, s 688, kids 0 [subdivided (1) v 2162, s 2128] * Total objects: 3 surfaces: 1049 vertices: 586 How to read this? I would like to know my poly count when subdivided. Do i Just count the number of surfaces or I count verticies too? Thanks... Last edited by throwingcopper; 29th June 2006 at 01:58 PM. |

Re: Pollys Please
The polycount is the number of surfaces in your model.
So in your case it's 1081 + 2128.

Re: Pollys Please
Will making them 1 sided cut the polly count in half? To do this, I think you select the surface from the side you want to view it, and select 1s. Right?
Thanks |

And yes, to have a polygon (surface) 1 sided you have to clik on the "1S" at the bottom of the AC3D window.

Re: Pollys Please
you may already know this, but if a one sided surface is not visible from the side you want, you can go to surface>flip normal to get it to appear on the opposite side.
