Hello everyone,

I wanted yr help with my .mdl files. One of them has :
256 x 256 texture
24 frames of animation
5371 vertices
" size is 3 mb "

Can someone plz help me out with this large file size...
Also whats the average file size of a descent animated model ?

Thanx for yr help.

you are using vertex animation right?

5000 vertices is not extremely large, but what problem did you have with this model anyway?

I m using Bone animation. And the prblm I m facing is large mdl size with only 24 frame animation.

Plz tell me whats the maximum and optimal(average) size of a descent mdl model with 24 frames of animation for A7?

Plz rply...its urgent.
thanx

I don't understand why bone animation in A7 is so large.
For example, i have 20 bone in my model and 30 flames for animation, how many memory i need to save all flames?
3 coordinate for each bone(pose), pose for each flames
((3*4)*20)*30 = 7200
my model need 7200 Byte to save animation, but in the model(mdl7) size of animation is much more, why is happening?

Chang: A 24 frames 5000 vertices model should normally have a size of about 3 MB with vertex animation, or about 300 KB with bones animation, plus the texture size.
