It has been a prosperous few weeks, and we have made some great progress!
I didn't know you could mess with the coding on anything other than blogs, how did you make everything black and blue on this group?
I've had an interest in learning how to do 3D modeling some day. I hate drawing, but I'm OCD when I'm editing pics on Microsoft paint, hopefully I'll be able to graduate from that to doing incredible 3d artwork and models. (mostly ships and stuff ^_^ kind of like fractalsponge)
Hey what program could auto reduce poly count without damaging the model itself much? Like when i do 5K poly count model and i want it to like 1-2K poly?
While there are tools and plugins for the task, they're automated and thus don't really care what your model looks like. You're best off welding and disolving by hand, this is much more time consuming but it will always produce the result you're aiming for.
You should try using the re-topography tools in other applications like blender .Then you can make the lowest poly mesh possible and still retain the overall shape.
What you are talking about is a decimate filter. Blender has one if you want a free one.
Meshlab, its automatic and fast it shouldn't damage your object, its worth a try
if you manage to get zbrush, use decimation master.
Softimage / Modtool would have a built-in feature to reduce the polygon count while trying to preserve the shape and as many existing loops as it can. I imagine other programs might have similar functionality.
The only way that I know of is welding, welding by hand can take some time but it's VARY helpful.
A Very long (quite dense though) but a interesting and worthwhile read "The Art of Rendering" (Its a web article, so i am not spamming for a book or something.. :D ) Fxguide.com
Please read "--- Please don't use the comments box below to look for help or assistance with your mod or game ---" meaning dont post here it spams the chat post in moddb job ads.
