Polycount

[Lemmuel]

Hi guys!

I have this 3d model that has over 77k+ poycount. Is there a way to decrease the polycount down to 2k without affecting much quality of the model? Thanks!

Hi Lemmuel - It really depends on the complexity of the surface - Some models have very simple silhouettes, and others are far more complex. Try using the decimation tools found under: Tools>Mesh Filter>Decimation. See how low you can go with that. To get optimal polycount you will need to manually retopologise your model (this can take a lot of time, and is quite an art in itself!).

If you post some screen captures of your model I can tell you if it's going to decimate well or if it needs some manual intervention
