Small question about performance of havok collision mesh geometry.

[dldrzz000]

Whilst modeling large block of smooth plain like ground floor or high-rise walls, since larger area means more chance and hits to collide one face, should face polygons of collsion mesh still be reduced to as least as possible?

On its own, static collision doesn't have much of an effect. However, the interaction of a normal collision with a collision with physics has a very strong effect. If a collision of a ball with physics rolls along a surface collision, then each polygon that determines this interaction naturally eats fps.Therefore, the less interaction of geometry with physical objects and characters, the more high-polygonality you can afford. )

Thank you for a concise reply.
