Real Time Poly Count

by Spencer Strombotne · in General Discussion · 08/07/2008 (10:37 am) · 2 replies

I have all of my artwork imported into my game and I'm getting major frame rate issues. Is there any way to monitor the poly/face/quad/tri count inside of the game like you can with metrics(fps)?

GLEnableMetrics(true);
metrics(video);
Look here for an explanation of each value: tdn.garagegames.com/wiki/TorqueScript_Console_Functions_2#metrics.28_metric_.29

Very useful, but I only found it by myself while reading through the common folder scripts.
Nobody ever told me about it, which is weird...

Another handy one is metrics(fps), which pops an FPS counter up on your top left corner.
