Quick question about character polycount

shogunato

Hi there !

I have created a high poly character that i would like to transform into game character.

I am wondering what polycount should i create... maybe 10000 tris or more ?
Let's say it would be for next gen game.


I'm not working into game industry so please, excuse me if the question seems stupid.

thank you

It depends on for what platform is it made and from which distance/angle will player view the model.

Maybe Ps3

This will be for a demo reel purpose

i juste want to create a screenshot inside marmoset

But ingame i think the camera will show this distance

If I remember correctly, the characters in Gears of War have something like 25-35k tris. So I'd say 10k is just fine.
