Polycount Reduction?

[TuLe]

What you mean by biped?

Is it a character your modeling on high-poly? or is a charcter studio fig you have?

You can reduce it by improving your model manually, using less
polygos or using a handy tool called "multirez"... It counts your model faces and then you can imput a reduction number for it...

Hope that helps...!

Well, since you mentioned that another user may choose to apply Meshsmooth the the object, the best way to reduce the poly count would be a way that maintains a sensible (mostly quad) mesh. Which means that doing it manually is probably the only viable way.

If you aren't already doing so, I would suggest using Meshtoolsl to help with the cleanup. It has functions to delete edges and vertices of Editable Poly objects non-destructively (meaning no holes are created). Great for controlling the topology as you optimize! You can find Meshtools at ScriptSpot (http://www.scriptspot.com/start.htm).
