ok so i compared polys (verts) on it

CMT cyborg in the 13000's
standard ce cyborg 7000's
recon and other halo 3 beta spartans 8000's
CMT d40 beta cybord 8000's

so you see the problem is its poly's is to high and theres to much detail on it when most of it could be done with bump maps and the diffuse map of it. so if i deleted tons of the faces made new ones it would be small in poly's. the grenade belt and the hand plates together 1600's so there for CMT maps wont be able to be played by people with bad gfx (most of the 1.00ers and 1.09ers) there for the map wont be popular because of this issue

Aren't you the guys who are always like, "high poly = good"?

no thats not me im for the bad gfx community even though i got good gfx.

Check the CMT elite poly count and compare it to the Spartans

the one lag released for mp?

yes

17000's but it has lod's

That doesn't matter, even at the closest LOD the Spartans tear and the elites don't. I stand by my theory about the materials.

I'm not saying the materials are not causing the problem. I just don't understand how it would cause the problem? I also have seen videos where the error is seen in the default biped. After I saw that I stopped caring because I believe it's a graphics card problem. I will play around with the materials and see if it changes anything. I only need someone who has the issue currently to help test it though.

I had the same problem that people experience with the CMT biped with an ODST drop pod vehicle I made. My video card fried and I had to run on an integrated (for over a month :V) and I would get errors just like what other people have gotten with the CMT biped, the poly count was pretty low too. Maybe at most 1000. I believe it is a video card issue, it could be the sub-par video card reacting to a high resolution bitmap or high poly model. Either way, the problem is most likely caused by a bad video card.

Look at the visor. The cyborg has 2 Mat IDs, each assigned to geometry. Material 1 is the visor, material 2 is the armor and rubber. The visor stays normal, the body tears. The elite is even more high poly than the cyborg, and it doesn't tear. The big difference? the elite has multiple Mat IDs that each have less geometry than the cyborg main body. Rather than have a material that is 10k (just throwing out easy numbers here) make it 2 materials that are 5k each. That seems to have worked on the elite.

Logic, use it if you have it.

well i got mine now at 3 materials if you want to test it duce u can have it.. people that have bad gfx that i know of is tucker but dennis banned him. want me to link you to his xfire?

but i had this problem until i bought a new pc :P but i didnt have a gfx card in the other one it was built in

these people that have bad gfx must have really bad gfx. i can see the cmt spartan fine on a ati radeon 9550 (32mb XD).

I can see what masters is saying.

But I know I want have a graphics issue.

I have two of these:http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Sapphire+-+Vapor-X+ATI+Radeon+HD+5770+1GB+DDR5+PCI+Express+Graphics+Card/9973559.p?id=1218204528762&skuId=9973559

In my custom build to graphics cards linked together.

actually i didnt really have that bad gfx

So can anyone confirm my theory?

i have it to 3 materials in max rubber,armor,visor i want to get one more in there any idea?

I wouldn't know, but there is a post somewhere on poly count where they explain that having multiple mat ids per vertex actually doubles the amount that has to be rendered by the gfx card. I know that's not the same thing as the problem you think it is but that could be one.
