pre-planning for game model(suggestions)

hoovinc · 23-11-2004, 02:38 AM

Hello game artists. When you guys model a game character which is going to have only 1 512x512 texture. Would you model a) 1 whole continuous mesh b) or a mesh with body parts detached by elements? Any reason behind each method. Remember only 1 texture for the whole mesh.

Gracias
