Here they are with wireframe overlay. This time its the buffalo and lion. You know the high lod models used in the replay were probably that high because even with such models the polygon budget barely broke 1 million during replays I suspect.
Even during worse case scenario all enemies huddled next to player which is like 5 of them times lets 2000 triangles on average for the medium lod models per enemy then of the 10,000- 20,000 triangles of the track only a really small section is always seen lets say around 4,000 triangles( iam being generous, depending on the track a section could go as low as 1,200 triangles). The replay players character buffalo 7,300 triangles plus a sled thats around 1,800 triangles. All that times 30 frames per second.
2,000 x 5 = 10,000 triangles for the enemies + 4,000 for the track section + 7,300 for buffalo on replay + 1,800 for a land sled = 23,100 x 30 fps = 693,000 tris per second. Might be wrong(could be higher because iam not counting enemy sleds, turrets and enemy or player weapon/weapon effects) but that is the impression I get.
Buffalo high lod - 7,309 triangles
