• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Poly counts

Hi Greg,

It's the triangle count that matters most (and the amount of drawcalls). I am not sure if you can see them accurately in SketchUp. But you can see them in ModelConverterX when converting to mdl.
 
Hello Greg and Anro...

There is some infromation that GSU gives,... unfortunately its not a poly count or a triangle count. From the "Window" menu click on "Model Info" it gives you number of faces, edges, and more. Also gives you the number of Materials used. On the Material used could be used as a guideline of the number of Drawcalls (at least, the models I have, its giving the exact same number of drawcalls for the model when looking at it through MCX.

So it might not give you exactly what is needed by FS desingers and such, but gives some useful information.
