Ishtara Rothschild Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Because mesh geometry files can be smaller in size than lossless 128 x 128 pixels large sculpt maps. Besides, sculpted shoes usually consist of several sculpties, each of which is individually textured, whereas a mesh shoe can be made of a single mesh with a single texture. However, sculpties do have some advantages. I have groups of 8-12 palm trees in my sim, and each group only consists of two (!!!) prims. Sure, they take a while to rez, but if the same group of large palm trees was created as a mesh object, the prim count might be in the hundreds.

Tini Jewell Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I'm not sure if it's my lack of coffee yet this morning or my lacking of understanding much about the technical aspect of mesh...but your reply seems based on the opposite of what I believe the OP had stated??? I thought the OP was stating that mesh is taking longer to rez...not sculpty. I'll reread the OP but I've already done that a few times. /me rubs her eyes, swigs her coffee and goes back to read again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you enlighten me how far affect to rezz discrepancy between sculpty and mesh referring abovementioned results? London Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drongle McMahon Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 "the opposite of what I believe the OP had stated" My thought exactly. My guess is that the sculpt maps were in the cache while the meshes were not. I have never seen an uncached scuplty rez anything remotely describable as "immediately", let alone 42 of them. However, the thought of 19,000 triangle shoes is scrambling my brain almost as deeply as that of 42-sculpty shoes, so I am not sure what to say.

London Verne Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 Now i'm completely lost ... I have reduced mesh to half in the hopes to rezz at least twice faster but it has no effect to rezz time. It takes just as long as before. Can anyone explain this mystery? Mesh before: 19.000 Ktris 602 KB 32.9 Streaming cost Mesh after: 4.856 KTris 320 KB 22.9 Streaming cost London Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arton Rotaru Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I took my mesh car (37 mesh pieces/ 17kTris) and my sculpty Snowcat (28 sculpts, 4 box prims) as a coalesced object into inventory. Cleared cache, relogged. Went to a sky platform with nothing else to rezz around. Rezzed the 2 vehicles and the mesh car was way faster fully loaded than the sculpt vehicle.

I was only looking at the lower streaming cost of mesh. That was my lack of coffee, not yours And lack of sleep after having been awake for 23 hours.

This is no difference to me. I mean if you teleport between sims you will see rezz discrepancy between mesh and sculpty. London Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arton Rotaru Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I suspect that depends on what is wiped out of your cache and what is left behind in your cache than. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HD Pomeray Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Just my observations but so far I have seen my mesh objects rezing Way faster than sculpties or regular prims. Just sayin... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
