Hi Privateer,

I know for sure that i don't want to put millions of poly for simple ship cross section damage but i managed to simulate the effect with both poly model and alpha map transparency for metal rod and structure destroy by the impact and it look pretty cool you will see them in one video to be release soon, tonight i have to finish the IIA sub video and will upload the movie as soon as it finish.

By the way the poly have minimal impact on the game engine specialy if they are static models i remember reducing millions of polygon on an others project to gain only 2 fps on the engine! Texture are what killing both the GPU and CPU cycle depending on how much ram and others variables.

Best regards Hans,

True or false?
(I am using GWX3.0 sinking mechanics)

This is from another thread, but anyways, anyone know if I can get a separate copy of GWX3.0 sinking mechanics without having to download the entire mod?
