greets all got a general "preference" and "usablility" question for those of you that model alot. after creating a model..assuming you export it to a render program...do you prefer to use triangles or quadrangles in your final model? I threw these two models together with the latest trial of amapi to decide if I want to get it, and finally I can get quadrangles out (which I prefer). also..if ya have a couple quad vs tri picts of the same model, Id like to see them. oh, yeah..and for animation..which is better? quad or tri? I noticed that all the models I have seen wireframes of (final fantasy for instance) used quad. thanx BT
