Ok, Can some one tell me where we are heading with these Hi-Res primitives.
Today I created the Hi-Res versions of several of the "normal" primitives.
Then I edited the main "normal" ones to use the Hi-Res instead. WOW!
There was about a 10-20% slowdown. Not too bad as long as the model wasn't too
large.
Will this cause a problem with renering POV? So far I have not been patient
enough to get the dat files converted into a POV'able file. I have tried, just
not succeeded yet.
I welcome all comments,
Paul
