Re: What is the polycount for "next-gen" consoles?
I sent Sony an email asking about the PS3 specs. They replied: Hi Sam, Thank you for writing us. The technical specifications for the PLAYSTATION(R)3 computer entertainment system have been released at a press conference in Los Angeles, California, in May of 2006. You can view the specifications of the PLAYSTATION(R)3… -
Re: What is the polycount for "next-gen" consoles?
i use 50 million polygons for straws. All games should do this now because they are all the same. r. -
Re: What is the polycount for "next-gen" consoles?
It all depends on the importance of the object, and the type of game. For Crackdown, cars were supposed to be under 10,000 polygons. For some cars, we didn't need that many, and looked great at 6,500-8,500. But then there were other more unique and complex vehicles such as the missile truck which ended up needing 15,000.… -
Re: What is the polycount for "next-gen" consoles?
True. Then again since people discovered they could use a hex editor to turn various discrete mesh parts "off" and "on", people have been making meshes with upwards of 50k polygons worth of hidden "extras" so people can turn bits on and off to make costume variants - only the visible parts are actually rendered. I just… -
Re: What is the polycount for "next-gen" consoles?
just stay between 5k and 10k. if you need more than that, then something isn't right, or your character is extremely crazy detailed. There's a threshold somewhere in there that you pass where the verts your adding/moving around, do little to almost nothing when you look at it on a television screen from the game camera. -

And this is where sammo1999 freaks out iun 3, 2, 1.... Because someone gave a smartass answer, and others did not give exact numbers but rather the correct answer. It depends on the game, the studio, how much of what is going to be on the screen and how important that object is. -
Re: What is the polycount for "next-gen" consoles?
[ QUOTE ] I've noticed that for PC games, the "polygon limit" is a bit more flexible than for Console games. For example, the game Freedom Force suggests a poly limit of 2k polies for custom content player models, yet has figures with as many as 3.5 k tris as player models. Then again, for some bizarre reason all of their… -

Re: What is the polycount for "next-gen" consoles?
Make sure that whatever your poly count is, sounds like you're shooting for 5000 which is a good number, you use them all for detail and don't waste any. A poly budget isn't a license to waste polys. If you ever find yourself saying "yea, I could totally shave off 2k polys but who cares I'm under budget b!tches! AH-HA!"… -
Re: What is the polycount for "next-gen" consoles?
I think you can model a Ps3 with no more than 12 tris i think, of course that would depend on the texture work, same for the other 2... Now serious man, i wouldn't go higher then 10000 tris for a main character. It might happen, but for being safe i would keep above that. But as all other said, it really depends on what we…
