(...) Hmm, How many poly's in that model? and what game is it a mod for? Balancing poly budgets in games is a non-trivial problem, how you do it is very dependant on the game, how many instances of a model is the game expected to render at once? how (...)

(...) One way to do this would be project rays through a model, selecting rays with random angles. Keep track of which polygons in the model initially (and finally) intersect the ray -- these polygons are visible. Repeat this process for enough (...) (19 years ago, 22-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) I hadn't thought of that. So the studs don't quite exist, the game engine just knows where to draw them, right? Indeed, the studs don't seem to cast shadows, though they are shaded. -Stefan- (19 years ago, 22-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Well, you're partially right, but the amount of polys per model would still be ridicilous (sp?) due to the tubes and studs still existent on the top and bottom. (URL) (...)
