Extracting triangle count from computer displacement 2005-06-05 - By Javier

yea. i did not preface it with the disclaimer: you get a 1 unless you
have displacement . Perhaps a more informative forum for this would be
shader@(protected)
Now, My guess is that you want to get the total number of triangles of
your scene you could get by adding the subdivided number of polygons
(you can doit in scripting, i know, ive done it but i dont recall the
actual line of code, or you can get it from scene info) to the
displacement triangles. Well this is just a guess. mail the mental
forum.
