but for some reason i feel sad. it just doesnt look like the "builder" type of model (like how the gorge is plump and is funny to look at when he walks) <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

i love it! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
i don't mind the polys either, cuz i have one beast of a machine. but maybe you should tone it down a bit for the others. i liked the idea of having two versions: high poly and low poly. i also liked the purple one better... kinda sounds homoish but i'm just used to seeing drones have more color than just green... maybe a nice blue would do him good!
great job on the model, man! keep up the good work!
Wow! I'm actually impressed, and good job on the textures. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
I dont think that u should reduce the polygon-count except if its to add more polies another place on your model.... Its just fine as it is! As said: Only very rarely ull se more than 2-3 gorges on a map so: Polies be damned, as said in one of the upper posts...

Also leave the 512x512 skins, I dont think there should be much of a problem there. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd--> hehe... 4000..

I said over 4000 silly <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->. Where can I get the sister of battle, I didn't think it was released.
Anybody know how many polies about 50 o chambers, 8 d chambers, 8 sensory chambers, and 8 movement chambers are? Anyway...my fps lowered from 50(usually I get 60, the map had bad r_speeds) to 30 when they were on the screen...I can't wait till my birthday, I'm getting a new video card ^^.
