Currently the texture for the head itself is 512x512. The head is also using its own normal map, emissive map, and specular map. I have not gotten around to combining the textures so that it requires just one of each map. I'll probably get to that once find out if it'll even work on ladder. So far i have only tested it with in replays and through the map editor and games vs the computer. All offline though. i havn't checked what it is currently, i can't remember if i lowered it anymore or not, but not that long ago the old zealot vertices count was 3130 and the modified one was 3856. | ||

I can only think of one thing, and that is that you make a unit like the ghost into a sphere so that you can more easily distinguish it from the marines in the enemies bio ball. Making it easier to feedback and stuff. However you can't make the model be visible when cloaked and exploit it in that way. Not that i know of i guess. You also don't have to worry about an opponent making their units look weird because only he will see them. But idk, maybe theres something im not thinking about? | ||

That's what i'm talking about, 3130 and 3856 are not so different. | ||

seems that 1/5 of people playing sc2 have it on lowest settings and still have a hard time in bigger battles. | ||

I guess you haven't played older FPS games much. If I get this right you could make so called "spike models", have units (better yet, mains to spot spawns and expansions) with long (like, LONG) sticks protruding in multiple directions - that way you can pretty much see where they are in the fog without scouting much at all. Not quite as good as a maphack but up there. | ||

I'm a huge fan of customization. Hopefully blizzard will give an alternative to certain or all units including the zealot | ||
