Padawan_7 Posted October 7, 2002 Share Posted October 7, 2002 Hey, that looks pretty good! How many polys is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madjai Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 yea that looks great, but the poly count looks really really high. got any reference pics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drafus Posted October 8, 2002 Author Share Posted October 8, 2002 I'd like to tell you but I'm new with gmax and I don't know where to go to get this information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drafus Posted October 8, 2002 Author Share Posted October 8, 2002 Ok I found it and you were right the poly count was high, it was in the 6000 but I got it down to 2373 is it good like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madjai Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 well... im not sure what the max vert count or poly count is for a gun, but sabers generally never go higher than 500-800 polys. i think 2373 is still too high, im sure you put a lot of detail into the gun that can't even be seen by the player, try reducing it as much as you can.

Drafus Posted October 8, 2002 Author Share Posted October 8, 2002 I watched for E-11 blaster and the poly count is 1111, so do you think that I should go around this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madjai Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 yea that sounds good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deetox187 Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 Actually you could probably shoot for a bit higher than that, the DC-15 is a much larger gun than the E-11. Just wish i could see your pics, all i get is an angelfire logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madjai Posted October 9, 2002 Share Posted October 9, 2002 the poly count should be as low as you can make it before it looks ugly and blocky. you want definition but not so much that it looks like its made for a cg movie. i suggest you put it ingame and keep lowering the poly count until you think it looks good but not too blocky.

Drafus Posted October 10, 2002 Author Share Posted October 10, 2002 I've found on http://www.jediknightii.net the blaster that Leia used in AHN so I download it and I checked the poly count and it was in the 2000 and mine is now 1383 so I think that mine is good enough. Now it might sound stupid but I'll ask it anyway... What do I have to do next? I mean how do I texture it and howdo i put it ingame. Can someone give me the informations please. P.S. If you want to see the Leia's gun I was talking about http://www.jediknightii.net/files/index.php?link=file&id=113 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t3rr0r Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 1383 should be perfect. can we see an updated screenshot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drafus Posted October 14, 2002 Author Share Posted October 14, 2002 Since my last post I've add a little thingon the gun but it didn't affected the poly count too much, so instead of having a poly count of 1383 it is now 1390. And since the last screenshots I have replace some parts by other but there is no big difference. http://www.angelfire.com/clone/gee_prime/clonetrooper_rifle_update.jpg What do you think???
