Poly Types and Animations in TGEA...
So I am new to the community here. I am a complete newb when it comes to the 3D side of things and game engines. I have a few questions that hopefully some of you more experienced 3D'rs can help with. 1. Poly type, what's best for TGEA Triangles, Quads, or Nurbs (not even sure if there is support for nurbs). 2.
