      Cheers whaat, another useful plugin to add to the arsenal.

      (perhaps i should setup a shortcut key for saying that ^ , it seems to be a recurring thing ๐Ÿ˜› )

        Dear Dale,

        I too would like to add my thanks for a very useful script.

        I have been playing around with a new bathroom design (for myself), and so I will try your script on some of the high poly models of basins and toilets I have found on the web.

        Kind regards,
        Bob

          You could have earned some money! You know it. If you had developed the rb a bit more, you could have done a new plugin like subsmooth rb...

          Thanks a lot. I don't have enough words.

          Forgive my spanglish...

                        I've only done some quick tests, but so far I'm struggling to find any reason for this plugin. Following on from Solo, I pulled a model of Bender from the 3DW. I tried a poly reduction of 30% on it, it messed up the model slightly and actually increased the file size from 1500 kb to 1639 kb.

                          File size isnt really very important unless your creating absolutely monstorous files. What does matter however is face count. You can have a 100mb file open easily if its got 50,000 faces, but if its got more than 200,000 faces your in for a hard time.

                          So basically face count is more important than file size pretty much all the time.

                                    Wow, nice plugin. ๐Ÿ‘ compliments Subdivide and Smooth perfectly. Strange thing is...
                                    Say i create a sphere. i right click and choose polyreduce. and it works, but i cant select all the faces with one click. now there are lots of faces that make up the poly-reduced sphere. ๐Ÿ˜ž Hmmmmmm...

                                      What do you mean by 'can't select all the faces with one click' ๐Ÿ˜•

                                      Maybe you can post a screenshot of the reduced sphere??

                                        Thanks Whaat - i have the feeling you will come back to it again if only as a module for something else.. very interesting!
