PSP Stalingrad

Khalmuck · Nov 2006

I am currentlly working on a final project for my Designing Interior Worlds and Spaces class. The level I have designed and started working on is a portion of WWII Stalingrad, which is of course is in much disaray.
I would like to have the level presented as something that could be ported to PSP. I was wondering if anyone here could give me an idea of what texture sizes are commonlly used for PSP games, and perhaps overall poly counts as well for a PSP level.
Any help you could give would be great. Thanks for your time.

i think psp for 60 fps it can hadle 10000 triangles on screen , the texture sizes ( to preserve memory ) are something like 128x128 , 64x64 , the less size you use the more memory you will save

Thanks...For large buildings and such...do you think it ould be alright to use 256's or 512's?...Thanks for the poly count too.

Naw, avoid. Be sensible and use tiling UVs.

yeah, it can piss polys about like nobody's business, and they're generally easier to compress than textures ... your best bet is to add more geometry to your buildings for shape and to make the most of smaller, tileable textures. Lower bit depth (4/8) is standard

i have worked quite a bit with the psp, and if your school has a license of optpix i would highly recommend using that for texture compression, it makes a world of difference and you will end up with 2 to 4 times the texture space of just using traditional methods.
