Apollo CM Docking Device, unsused highpoly model #8

Open Bufflak opened 5 years ago

Bufflak commented 5 years ago

Currently used lowpoly model: FASA_DockingDevice_CM.mu

Unused highpoly model: Apollo_DockingDevice.mu

For reference: CM is 9601 tris. Is half of that even worth it just for a docking probe? Look into KSP polycount limits.

Poly-count limits in KSP are in the millions on any sort of relatively modern graphics card. Notably as poly/tri count is a GPU limitation, it is not something that you'll hit very often in KSP (your part-count and CPU bottleneck often cause GPU stalls).

I have a few parts up in SSTU the 12k range. And those are engines that often get clustered :) (granted, my capsules are usually a bit simpler, in the ~3k range)

That's good news! I'll look into other possible reasons why it isn't being used and if there aren't any, i'll create textures for it and get it ingame.
