The_Fragger Posted July 26, 2013 Author Share Posted July 26, 2013 What is your poly target? Looking at other models I would probably recommend something around 200.000 polies. (maybe less) Target is 120.000 polys. Further polys for details and pilot/Crew. So I think I will be around 150.000. It's better to take the framerate into account (Not everyone have a hi-end machine) :thumbup: 2D/3D Artist MILTECH-5 /PD Lead 3D Artist - TrueGrit Virtual Technologies [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] BO-105 PAH1A1/VBH / HKP-9A / BO-105 CBS-5 KLH Eurofighter Typhoon https://www.facebook.com/PolyDynamicsDCS/ Windows 10 (x64) 3x Corsair SSD GT 250 GB Mainboard: Asus STRIX Z390-F CPU: Intel Core I9-9900K @ 3.60GHz RAM: 64 Gb Graphics: MSI GForce GTX 980 TI 4GB HOTAS Warthog Hofmann Simpad Rudders Oculus Rift / Oculus Touch Heavy Metal is the law ! :punk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aginor Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 That's cool, if you can do the quality you want with that poly number you should totally do it. Even the people that actually have high end machines will appreciate that.

Andi31 Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Tolles Cockpit :) Könntest Du es vllt so machen, dass Du alle News und neue Bilder auf der ersten Seite in den ersten Post editierst? Das stört mich nämlich bei den anderen Projekten auch. Wenn man nämlich zB nicht wie hier andauernd mitschaut oder zum ersten Mal diesen News-Thread anschaut, darf man, um die meisten Screens zu sehen, schon mal 50 Seiten durchkämmen und das nervt. Ich kenns halt vom ArmA-Forum so und das ist echt praktisch, wenn man nur auf die erste Seite schauens muss ;) Sry für den langen Text, aber das wäre eben ein Vorschlag von mir ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BR55Sevas Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 (edited) Update 30.07.2013 Preview of the cockpit-progress so far. It takes longer than I tought ;) Looks like very much excess surfaces for cockpit model. All surface which is never seen from pilots view must be removed, for example back side of seats. Look at some ED cockpit models in modelviewer, they are very optimized and you`ll understand what I mean. 160k+ tris for cockpit to much. ED recommends near 100k here and here. Also model "weight" for DCS determines by tris, not polys. I hope I said nothing offensive here, just want to share some knowledge I had from russian forum and ED tutorials. Some tutors translated to en, but very interesting ED advices I wrote not. Keep up good work!

The statistics from the screenshot are not correct, because I have a second cockpit also in my scene. So the actual Triangle count is about 69.000. The rear details of the seats is for the crew in the backseat. Just thought when you are a gunner you have a view on the rear side of the seats. Or is the rear section a seperate model ? It would make sense. I took a look at the UH-1H cockpit model and the rear section is missing. Rear model with reduced polys for pilot section and pilot section with reduced poly for the rear section. is that correct ? Thanks for the links.
