Well yesterday was an interesting day. I have reached a natural conclusion to the modelling and decided to sort out the smoothing groups. This opened a massive can of worms. Not ordinary garden worms but some mutated monster worms. I collapsed all the symmetries and sorted all the smoothing groups out. Feeling quite pleased with the result I suddenly noticed that my polly count had risen to 9222. From where? I had not even hit 8000 before I collapsed the symmetries but an increase of over 1000 pollies? Apparently you don't get a true polly count whilst using symmetry.
Anyway, as this increase frustrated me I decided to revert to my primary save file that I started the day with and repeat the process but this time watching the polly count. At the end this time the polly count was 8600. Bizarre.
After a minor tantrum I decided that I was going to hit my self given polly limit of 8000 so began to remove unnecessary information. I now have a 7986 polly count but don't know where the additional pollies came from.
