Triangles and number of vertexes


#1

I have a quick question since I’m an extremely noob in game modelling. I’m currently doing an in game model which is supposed to “have a maximum of 5000 polygons”. Do they mean 5000 triangles or 5000 polygons with more than three vertexes? Are you always using triangles in games? Thank you.

Yes, they count triangles for games. And 5000 seems hight enough to bee triangles, actually.
However, you should ask THEM. I mean the people who gave you the project. You can’t work without communicating.
