Wrong PolyCount&DrawCall Problem

by Boğaz Harbi · in Torque 3D Professional · 04/21/2010 (4:59 am) · 3 replies

Hello, It seem like drawcall and polycount aren't calculated correctly on Torque 3D 1.1 Beta version.
Because, when I open console it must be increased the drawcall but it increases both drawcall and polycount (+5000).

All I doing is only open-close console... you can see it in video belove.



I wonder that, if problem is because of us or are they (PolyCount and PolyCount) wrong calculated on T3D 1.1 Beta 1.

How can we fix that ?

The polycount and draw call metrics are not wrong.

Each character in the console is 2 triangles/polygons plus all the borders and gui gizmo drawing for the console window itself.

It does add up, but i wouldn't worry about that being a problem.
