| When I model 3d buildings... Do I still need to budget the polys to 1000? |

| Poly budgeting is generally a guideline rather than a rule. You can place a 10000 poly model in there with no problems at all. |

| I would say for the sake of old PCs, limit the polycount to 3000-5000 which is a lot to create a detailed model for generals. considering the amount of e.g. 1k poly tanks vs 5k poly superweapons or commandcentres on the map, it is no problem. Original buildings are fairly low detail though, so detailed ones might stand out |
