Hey there again, I was just wondering the max amount of polygons you can import into Halo CE?

There really is no max, I think it just starts to lag after a certain number I would guess.

I have no idea. I heard a while back somebody say that Halo can handle about 30,000 polies in a BSP before it starts to lag. I could be wrong though.

The HEK tutorial has it somewhere. I think it said 50,000k triangles including scenery. But with computers now I guess that can be pushed a little higher.

It depends on the computer specs. Higher specs means more triangles can be tolerated.

Although it's best to keep it low for those with older computers, you can get away with way higher triangle counts on newer computers.

I've gotten 90k triangles in a BSP (MP). Although tool will say the map file is to big and won't compile it if you go any higher. I only had 1 MB tag space left (with out anything in sapien placed yet).
