Looks great man... can i see the wire...

Thanks.

Just added a forward assist to it, and it now sits at a neat 3500 tris.

I'll post some shots in a bit.

Hey Jason... would you mind explaining the difference in performance terms please? Which one wuld you consider when working on a game model, tris or polys? Finally, what does the polycount tool in max give you? I read somewhere its's inaccurate or something?

Jason-Lavoie · 11-09-2004, 01:25 AM

Form my understanding, all game models are converted to tris...

Tris are basicly poly's cut in half... to make triangles...

So say u have like 1500 polys.... well that would be like 3000 tris...

In performance i don't know what it does... maybe its easier to proces tri's then polys... but i thought i heard that some engines are going to polys or somthing... i don't really know... I think it takes more memory (meaning beefer comp) to run polys instead of tris... i don't really know...

As for the max poly counter... i think its pretty accurate... i don't really care that much right now if Its a couple polys off... i think it has trouble counting tris though.... i think...

Hopfully that helped a bit.. and if i am wrong, correct me.. he he

Amaranth · 11-09-2004, 01:29 AM

Bien merci, mon ami.

Now, back to the topic of this rather spiffy gun...

Julhelm · 11-09-2004, 01:50 AM

Yeah I'm gonna skin it once I finish the M-14 skin I was working on earlier.

your www doesn't seem to work...

but anyhow ttyl on im maybe

Holy cow! That is so sweet.

Very nice with such a low poly count. Oh my mod could use a weapons person like you.

Julhelm · 17-09-2004, 10:35 PM

Why thank you =)

[X]treme · 17-09-2004, 11:27 PM

looks great, and the poly count is by no means exceptionally high, but I definitely think there's a handful of areas where you could cut back on a lot of polys and compensate with texture
