...is that magazine made of wood?

Saxxy.
But too mainstream.

I'll fix that.
It's late night, and I never bothered to lighten up the color on the gun.

Extrude, I'm getting tired of your stuff.
Seriously.
Some of it makes sense, but this is the kind of stuff that gets on my nerves.

[Extrude]

make models that fit the game instead of 8k poly stuff.

Wait, make models that fit the way you think it should fit the game?
No thanks, I'll do that some other time.

[Extrude]

i'm pretty sure most people think that the models should fit in to the game, instead of being some completely out of theme thing.

So, what is your definition of high poly?
Mine is anything over 1500.

[Extrude]

1,500 quads =/= 1,500 polygons

1 quad = 2 polygons

1 quad = 2 polygons

ah, true, so true...


But seriously, who are you to decide how my models look?

We are. If you were to take the shutters off your eyes, you would see how your models are butt-ugly.

Technically a quad is still a polygon, just saying.

That's why its usually called a triangle count, rather than just a poly count.

[Extrude]

polygons have 1 triangle and add up to 180 degrees, quadrilaterals have 2 and add up to 360.
