Christ, my new Carrier is 1950 polys (tris) and all I've got so far are the engine blocks.  Why bother with this archane limit?  Are you planning on using it as LOD8 or something?

I think it's just for fun. (Or perhaps for a gigantic mass-battle scene... ;7 )


BTW the model I posted first has nearly 13k polies now... damn.

Ok- looking good.

USE NON-TRIANGULATED COUNTING- THE BOX COUNTS AND THE LODDED DEIMOS COUNTS.

My cruiser made from 2 boxes, that's 98 polys?

 


The Winchester Tabby-powered Cruiser, GTPDC Blitzerwhatever.

Urm, how do I count polies in Gmax? Kinda a n00b to modeling...don't even have the slightest idea how to assign textures yet.

Try the properties dialogue.  (Edit->Object Properties).  That's where it is in Max, at least.

Found it. Thanks, Stratcom. It's looking really spiffy, actually. Now I just have to find some way of converting it to a format Fs2 can tolerate...bloody Gmax.

Right, I'll stop spamming this thread.

*runs off to try to find a convertor*

It's gone AWOL for a bit I think. If I had the picture of the cube saved somewhere I would've posted it. Maybe run a search of the forums? That sometimes works. :p
Wash: This landing's gonna get pretty interesting.
Mal: Define "interesting".
Wash: *shrug* "Oh God, oh God, we're all gonna die"?
Mal: This is the captain. We have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence and then... explode.

This isn't the real cube, it's a mockup.  But it gets the point across.  20 verts, 16 polys.

This is about as efficient as I can get. Max says 192 faces, and a manual count (as I went along, rather than all at the end) gives me 97 polies.

Wow, it's been ages since I saw that last.  My cube is horridly out of proportion.

Steak's isn't even all that cube-ish. It's more of a GTD Box really.

Since we're requesting cubes. :D



:D I might have a go at something a little more serious in a bit :D
