3DS Max - Polycounter and backface culling question
Hi everyone! The polycounter in 3DS Max is a great tool, but it counts every polygon/triangle in the scene (or in your selection). However, I would need to count only the drawn polygons and not the back-culled ones. Usually I consider them being about 2/3 of the total polycount, but it's never a precise value. Does there… -
Polycount Tower, 3D Studio Max tools
A while ago we announced - and launched in partnership with Sketchfab- the Polycount Tower: An on-going community project that allows any and all artists to participate. Around that time we had launched the Throne Room contest which, admittedly, took some of the wind out of the towers sails. But! We're here to remind you… -
Seattle Polycounters and 3D Training Seminar
Hey Polycount - I'm a big lurker but I rarely post :x . I have a question for my fellow Seattle area Polycounters - is anyone attending the 3D Training Academy "night of inspiration" (link) next week? I hadn't heard about it (except for a random email I received) but I figured it would be interesting so I grabbed a ticket.… -
Does a 3d model polycount determine the resolution of the texture?
Im intermediate at 3d modeling but self taught so this might sound like a silly question. I see models in the 60,000 polycount range and lower but the texture resolution on them is so sharp and clear. So is it possible to have a model that is 60,000 polys wrapped with a texture that is say 4K? -

I want to bring 3D fights back to Polycount.
Pow, right in the kisser! Back in the day - waaaaay back in the day - at Polycount we'd have impromptu "3D fights": A random topic or theme and a measly 30-60 minutes to do whatever we could within that theme. Usually the result was nothing but geometry rendered crudely. From there everyone would dump their results in to a… -
Besides Polycount, where do you go when you need help on something 3D?
I love this website and I've been on here for a while, but sometimes when I have things that I really need or want answers to, just posting it in Technical Talk isn't enough. It's great that the stuff I post there eventually gets read most of the time, but it just takes so long. My last question was answered by one of the… -

How to bypass the xNormal polycount limit in 3D viewer?
Hi. I have a really large mesh (10 mill polys) and would like to use the 3D viewer to create a cage, but i can't because the limit seems to be around 8 mill. Anyone know if i can bypass this somehow?
