      Hi Whaat,

      As you asked in the Indigo forum, I upload the 'naked running man' SU model that was made in 'Make Human' so you can test it with your S'nd S project.

      (The complete scene was way too big to upload).

      Cheers,
      Kwistenbiebel

        I can see this plugin being very useful to me helping with my car and ship modelling.
        Is this going to be a free plugin or commercial?

          wowwwww Whaat... you are incredible! 😲

          can it reduce the polygon count of a hi-poly mesh (work in reverse) too?

          I think this would be good feature too, if do not consider it too difficult to implement.

            I don't understand this workflow. How do you create your high-poly models in the first place? If you are creating them with software other than SU, it only makes sense to use the same software to reduce the poly-count prior to bringing the model into SU. I am sure Max and Blender can both do this.

            Some free models, for example 3d scanned ones, do have really high poly-count. I can imagine using some of those in SU, but after some scale down.

              What about components made of 1/4 parts, like this glass. Object has parts that are not wanted to subdivide and also open edges of sub-components needs to be left without subdivision. Glass_sub.jpg

                Since so many people are asking for this poly-reduction feature 😲 , I will try to create a plugin to do this. However, this will not be until after the subdivision plugin is released.

                I have no idea when I will release it. There's LOTS of work left before I would be comfortable releasing it.

                  What about a "non destructive" subdivision?
                  Meaning: the possibility to go back to a lower subdivision for further modelling.
                  Then go back to the higher subdivision for rendering.

                      oh no... sub-object modeling in SU like in VIZ... 😲 ... too complex for my little brain to handle...

                      just kidding! I would like that too, but let's let him get this thing done first, shall we?! We don't want to sound ungrateful... 😄
