a bit of time since my last update but getting ready to LM this map in max at the moment

Z-trooper · 02-26-2009, 06:52 AM

just curious. what kind of numbers are we looking at for such a mesh?

[R-DEV]Rhino · 02-26-2009, 12:17 PM

ohhh, only 4,657,248 polys

and that's after I've optimized the terrain hehe, terrain is still 2M polys.

Z-trooper · 02-26-2009, 02:08 PM

:/ I though I had it bad rendering 1,6 million triangles with 4 lightsources, raytraced shadows and skylights with light tracer enabled.

[R-DEV]Rhino · 02-26-2009, 02:15 PM

hehe, well, sky lights take years to calculate

isn't as bad as muttrah which was around 10M polys

Z-trooper · 02-26-2009, 02:42 PM

geez, my max give me an error when I try to render too high poly counts. I couldnt get it up above 4M before it gave up on me :/ had to lower smoothing iterations, but it work out fine.

On a more serious note...
I'll soon be back to work on my PR jobs after having had a few tough weeks at uni and foolishly started another project over at GA -_- though its comming along nicely, its sucking up every friggin spare minute I have.

btw did you solve your double sided faces problem?

[R-DEV]Rhino · 02-26-2009, 03:00 PM

Hehe, good to hear you will be bk soon

The one I posted on GA forums? ye what the guy suggested with just cloning the trees and flipping the normals works fine, I thought it would take for ever to do it but only took a few seconds, took longer to get the correct trees in the places

Started my LMs 30mins ago and already 32% way though my sun light so with any luck it shouldn't take too long to LM this baby, only a few hrs
