Simple and short, ends July 4th 12:00PM!!!

ULTIMATE!! LOL. Hey, it is just a callenge, I dont think it actually has to function in an engine. Bungie is probably using unreal 3 now (since they are part of Microsoft) and I think that is where he came up with the specs.

You going to give it a go?

nah.. tho' I did give it a think... :p

would be a total waste of time.. bein' that our game is designed to have a LOT of models and objects in a scene.., heck our main toons are only 2000 to mebbe 2700 triangles with hair, armor, skirts, capes, etc...

a crate or barrel? maybe 200 tris, tops! and one or two 128's or a 256...

That is what is nice about the crate/barrel challenge.

That is what is nice about the crate/barrel challenge.
... although..
where a 200 tri crate could no way compete with a 1000 poly one in the challenge..
- a 3000 - 3500 tri creature could compete with a 4000 poly one..

And! such a creature as a main character is a possibility in our game..
.. but a repeating small item like a barrel at 1000 polys is not.. :p

hehe....

Yeah, that challenge wasn't very well thought out. It should be a 1000 poly environment.
