Hey guys

Can I just ask how many polygons would you use in a boss weapon
e.g. volt rifle
because I have made an assult rifle but I don't know if it has too many polygons in it.

Polygons = 1479

After I have sorted this area out I will move on to skinning and boning and then I will release it (If all goes well).

Thx

I'm not a weapons modeler, but have to say “Polygons = 1479” sounds high after looking at WW’s models. If you did do the weapon you have in the link it looks very good. Better than I have done for weapons.

IMO,

Very Low: Around 400 or less
Low: Around 500-700
Normal: Around 800-1000
Medium: Around 1100-1300
High: Around 1400 or more

(For models that are to be used in the game.)

has a polygon count of 1300 so I wasn't sure if this was ok

Of course. Under 200. (It should be easy to keep it under this, as you'd be changing every cylinder to a box (or even better, a 3 sided cylinder), and exchanging every shape on the gun for a basic box.)

That m4 looks alright except for the butt stock (the back of the gun). The handle on top of the gun, and the body/center of the gun could use some work. The m203 could use alot of work also, it's missing the trigger, and it isn't part of the m4. (And I don't know if it's just the screenshot, but the m4's magazine is supposed to be seperate from the m4, or at least look like it is)

Yeah I see what you mean it does need a lot of work

That screenshot is so very c*** are there any other programs that I can use to show this gun better? Like W3d but better.

I will get to work on trying to make this model better right now.


The problem is I found a picture on the net and the back of the gun is just like that so I'm not sure on what I can do to alter this
