Any Decent Custom Hair?
Motoki:
I had his short dreads a while back on one sim and didn't seem to have any noticable problems. That hair I believe was in the 6k face range. But it was also on a very small lot (Numenor's 2x2 A frame special) and only one other sim was living there and she had regular Maxis hair. I think having that one somewhat high poly hair on that tiny lot still wasn't as big as having a big assed lot filled with junk on it heh so a lot of it depends on how you are playing too.

So when he gets rich and moves to a big house and marries a Fortune sim wife, then he'll have to go for one of Hairfish's short crops instead!

Okay, help me out here. How do I find the poly count on a hair? I opened one in SimPE and poked around but without knowing what I am looking for I'm kind of lost. Thanks for explaining.
MokeyHokey:
It works the same as checking on an object. You have to open the mesh, not a texture. I think it's the first option--Geometric Data Container, then click on the line in the righthand box, and the poly/vertex count shows up beneath. If it's really big, it might take a bit. :P

Okay, here is what I find for one of the meshes in my download file. I am assuming I am interested in the "Models" numbers, not the one's below? There are check boxes in front of all the "hair" lines and the top one is checked. Thanks again for explaining to me. My given name is Denise and I learned a long time ago that if I wrote my name too fast it sometimes came out Dense!!!
Models (Faces=832, Vertices=530):
hair (Face Count=30, Vertex=24)
hair_alpha9 (Face Count=30, Vertex=24)
hair_alpha5 (Face Count=30, Vertex=24)
hair_alpha7 (Face Count=176, Vertex=111)
hair_alpha3 (Face Count=176, Vertex=111)
