arch3d Posted December 4, 2018 Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 Hi all Its my first post here. So maybe its silly question but i am just learning GrowFX I would like ask about using it with Forest Pack I know this combo is very powerful for animations but do i get extra resources/speed, save ram etc. using growfx objects instead of meshes? - i am not asking about randomisation or vertex shading I just wonder if i can save some space on my hdd Thanks for help Michal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptrain03 Posted December 6, 2018 Report Share Posted December 6, 2018 You will definitely save RAM, I am not sure about hard drive space. It depends upon how Forest pack treats your animated proxies. For stills, I did a test and Forest pack objects made with .gfx files do appear smaller than polygon meshes, but I could have misread. I think the .gfx file is just a set of instructions to build a mesh, that is why it is so small. The actual mesh produced (which is probably what Forest Pack scatters) is still pretty big. I have been using the combination of these two plugins for a long time and together they have saved me a ton of time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
