Reducing a mesh?

[jo-ke]

If the mesh of a 3D sculpture is too detailed, how can I reduce the mesh? Is there any plugin to do that job?

Whaat's Poly Reducer over in the Plugins Forum. Be prepared for a long wait!

Or if you can export it as .obj you could then open it in Sculptris and reduce the mesh.

I'm sure there are even more option but these come to mind.

Thank you. I will try that.

I like sculptries but I have a problem with the reimport to scetchup.

If the obj is to complex sculptris crashes. So I prefer meshlab for that.

Yes, I've noticed that too, but glad you found another solution

I also saw your Laser Scan thread which is great! Hope to see more of your results with this method.
