Mag1's hot new wheels



Not picked it up yet, it's going through pre-delivery. Plus I haven't got a camera anyway.

While I'm here, what's the poly limit on a SCP HTL-build fighter ?

Oh? What kind af car is that?  It looks sporty, yet hatchy. Like a civic HB competitor. :yes: Best of luck with it, and be careful when making turns. ;)


Fighter poly limit... I think it's safest to keep it at or under 7-800. But that;'s just me.

I'd agree with Raa here, top it off at around 1000 max and you should be safe. :)

Nice car :D

Bob once said, back when he was first implementing HTL, that to figure a rough limit: the the highest poly fighter and tack a 0 on the end and then do the same for the capital ships.  I don't know how this works out in reality as I can't run the HP ships(I go from ~16-25 FPS to 4), but I recall that being the rule of thumb.
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

That's a bit absurd, really. 3k polie fighters?

9k polie capships? (more reasonable, but still)

Looks like a Fiat Punto from here, a friend of miine drives one of those.

Yup. With a tyre killing 60 hbp!! But it's not a shed, as all my previous cars have been.

My fighter should come in around 1000, max 1500 is I use Nico's cockpit (obviously if I do then the rest of it will need the extra detailing)
