Tris and Polys: Some discussion of the difference between tris and polys would be nice here. (My understanding is that tris are the simplest polygon possible, and that the poly count of a model is sometimes not as useful as the tri count, because when models are used in games etc., they are often converted to tris. But a description from an expert would be nice.) Funnels07:03, 27 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
