how to reduce poly counts in blender

reduce poly counts in blender

[@Keyframe3DAinimation]

so many attempts and that was the esiest way without 3rd party content......I feel stupid, more people should see this video

[@MeatMake]

Does using this method keep the mesh’s texture?

[@Keyframe3DAinimation]

@@MeatMake It should

[@MeatMake]

@@Keyframe3DAinimation ty! :DD

[@veryupstandinguy]

It only works of you have a pure quad mesh, if it had tris or just very messy topology then it wouldnt work

[@weebo1926]

HEll yea!!!!!! finally i found the blender tutorial guy who's straight to the point no monologue no ramble no waste of time

[@Mincat812]

INDEED BROTHER!!!!!

[@LizzyKoopa]

This is awesome. One note to those who have already baked etc. this will remove your textures in odd ways. be prepped for re-baking. at least this is how it is on my end for my zbrush model. thanks for the tutorial! quick and right to the point.

[@TacticsTechniquesandProcedures]

Did using the option “correct face attributes” help?

[@ERPOLLEY]

Holy crap! You have saved me so much time in my near future, thank you!!!

[@Atomic-toons00]

that was the quickest and most useful tutorial!! thank u

Your a life savor, I had so many it kept freezing my computer when I opened the file 😅

[@cjkalandek996]

I'm gonna apply these to some models that I couldn't rig because of how detailed they are.

Best fucking video ever made bro hahah This is one of those perfect to the point short and concise youtube tutorials

[@mr.boomguy]

I thought this was meant to be comedy, but it was streight to the point

[@twistednormals]

Works only if your mesh already has good all-quad topology, because if it has any triangles or bad edge-flow it will ruin your topology

[@TruthSurge]

I just tried it with some mesh I got from blenderkit that was a guy's body and very low detail but TONS of polygons and unsub made most of the faces not shaded. I couldn't figure anything to fix and sub again did not return it but anyway yeah, I was thinking how can I get rid of the ridiculous # of vertices that are literally not needed. Must be some way to do that in blender native w/o addon ?

[@gfries4906]

@@TruthSurge you can use the decimate modifier. decimating is also in the mesh menu when youre in edit mode.

[@TruthSurge]

@@gfries4906 Thx. I haven't been in Blender in 2 months I guess. I guess it got depressing thinking of how much time it took just to make one decent scene. but thanks!

[@kenalpha3]

I have a long tube sphere. 840 faces. UnSubdivide edges does nothing. What is the problem? Add mod > Decimate > UnSub shows no change. Decimate > Planar angle to 5.1 > shows the faces go down to 420. But if I apply then go to Edit > faces are still 840??? Edit: Tris to Quads worked. But this is for UE4. Is it bad to mix Tris and Quads? (I will export many mixed meshes as one) Select mesh > Edit > A (select all) > Topbar - Face > Tris to Quads [Alt J] > Angle = ? (40) >> (faces 840 to 420)

[@MRUStudios]

WOW! Thank you so much for sharing! I didn't even think about this method. I've been using the decimate modifier and then applying it to reduce processor load. It works well, if I'm careful not to decimate too much, but this method may be easier and better! Thank you so much again for sharing my friend! 😃

[@selfstirringmugo7224]

you are the best!! thank you for creating a short tutorial🙏

[@nathunterstudio8391]

With or without listed uv ?

[@terminatedchannel1570]

Is it better than Decimate or can you use it as a compliment?

[@mrlightwriter]

Good question.

[@phishdough]

This doesn’t really save time with retopology though right? Can I sculpt a detailed mesh and get a similar results?

[@Need2pee]

Not really it will mess things up you can bake to a low poly shape instead

[@LolaLopVR]

Does this mess up the UV mapping?

[@muratasashimi4532]

我使用这个办法时，我有思考过一会儿。因为如果我把Poly给消减掉的话，虽然会减轻整个模型，然而会导致材质模糊。更可怕的是，消减时会导致整个模型会垮掉。所以我使用前，都会三思而后行

[@-touya_todoroki]

Well any material with blurr if you change the topology and how would it colapse? I can see it collapsing becouse of too little poly or trying yo modify something too much on low poly

why i shldnt use decimate?

thank you so much now blender is not responding

[@darkbatu]

diference with decimate?

[@ve1582]

Decimate gives you bad topology.

[@blukat9903]

I miss clicked on subdivide inside of un-subdivide and now my pc is dying

[@shubhuwithkotaropfp]

Bro using blender in a low end pc is such pain in ass i use it in a 4gb ram no gpu pc wbu

[@JayBaggio]

Thanks. How can you see the actual polygon count? the values I mean

[@recreatingcontents5795]

Show overlay-> check the statistics. You'll see it top left corner.

[@m1.01zahranormansyah4]

i dont even see "edge" in my editing mode..

[@eliazarelizondo7075]

Im trying ti subdivide but my seams and faces are crossing into eachother resulting in some crazy looking mesh around the seams. Any advice?

[@Nazadev]

probably bad topology

[@christianerudition]

Maybe normals?

[@tee-hee9553]

it work but the object from production quality to unacceptable

[@josemartins-game]

It brakes textures, though

[@Aidenmash]

It doesn't do anything to my model!

[@pdzlatan]

Good idea but it corrupts the UV

[@Need2pee]

But atleast it does the job neatly you could unwrap again

[@wlcrashes]

Hmm, i don't think it works, nothing changes
