Fair comment.

The original ones I am thinking of related to in-game testing of a scratch built Lancaster model. The LOD0 model was, from memory, greater than 20000 polys.

Very recently I have been trialling an IJN Kongo BB made by others.
The LOD0 model for this was around 160000 polys !!!
I didn't expect it to work, but it did. FPS was 65 on my mid level system compared with 62 for the stock HMS KGV model. Beta version available here: http://www.sas1946.com/main/index.ph...html#msg207259
