How do you see the amount of polyies in 3D STudio MAx? Also what is a good number to keep a weapon or vehicle under?

Well press 7 in 3ds max and then click on the obejct.It will show you in the upper-left corner of the Viewport.Well Polys.A map should overall have under 10000 POlys.So weapons would be ~500 vehicles ~1500

I love the hover tank so I'm going to try and reduce the polyies from 9800 to 1500

Ehh... it makes it look crappy. I'm just going to remake part that have too many polyies like the rocket launcher and the two sides.

LOL, I found the source of the biggest problem. Unbelievably it was the hinges the rocket launcher was on. Had 500 and some polygons a piece. So I said to myself, "Hey, if the tank can hover, then so can the rocket launcher." So I decided to cut that part out. It's now down to 500 and some polyies. I'll put up a pic really soon cause it still looks pretty good. I just have to add a little to it.

I created a new thread about making a tag with my new model so I don't want people to think I created 2 of the same thread which they are totally different. If you could bump the other one so it's above this one that would be good.

Just one thing:
Do you intend to get the sniper ingame?I could do it for ya if you could get the polys down
