And for FP model, remove the front and right side faces of the rails.
uh... how about no? you see both sides when during the animation. You don't remove it just because it's fp, you keep it depending on the animation.Quote:

thank legionaire. also, certain things can still be optimised. i agree, you dont just delete shit because its fp, but deleting something facing forward almost always is fine, since most animators dont make anims that show those faces. depending on what engine its going in, you can decide which faces to delete after the anims are made (like with ce). but if you put it into something like crysis, im p sure you have to make those kinds of decisions before hand
As flyinrooster said, getting rid of the front faces is always a yes.
However, anything else you think about getting rid of, always talk to your animator (if you have one in mind/particular) before you do anything else, as you will want to get an idea of how they would like to animate it so then you can optimize the model without screwing over the animator and limiting his possibilities.
No, not always a yes. Suppose you delete the front faces of the rails and the animator wanted to do a running animation where the rifle is held angled, pointed skyward? whoops.
Complete a model, THEN bounce ideas back and forth with your animator so you can best optimize your model.
Well, if you mean a sprint, I was thinking of that but immediately in my head I only thought of Halo's base animations, which does not contain a sprint.Quote:

I would say that the animator should delete the faces when he's done with the animations. It really is the most efficient that way, seeing as he knows which faces are going to be there and which are not before anyone else.

This is a album i've been thinking about doing, part instrumental at this early stage, everything subject to change.
This is The first track, it's all ambiance, think of it as a conversation, as if you where watching it on tv,
it's taken from first person perspective, your the patient, and at the end of your life in a hospital dieing from an unknown unexplainable illness.
The cursing seems pretty immature for a doctor.
sometimes doctors flip out to their nurses and stuff while the patient's not there/not conscious, though. can be believable.
