Highest Vertex count ! World Record!

[Blendereruser (Pastor)]

Can you beat this record ?

I would not try; I prefer to concentrate on making good images or models and if the polygon count goes high then so be it. For some of my commercial modelling projects I have to keep the lowest possible polygon count while still making a good looking model, not try to make the polygon count higher.

However here’s a YouTube video about a project in Blender that has around 44 times the polygon count that your project does: VFX Artist Creates 20,000,000 Trees with CGI

My machine has twice as much RAM as his did (he had 64Gb, I have 128Gb) so I assume I could go much higher than 44 billion. He only used around 24Gb to render the image so he could have gone a lot higher too.

Thanks piranha4D and Joseph! Behold the glory of computer! 6.4 billion polygons rendered in 8 seconds. Really though how did the statistics get like this and how can I fix it? I UV’ed the ceiling and moved a few things then the stats went wild. Update: Blender crashed soon after. Opened the file again and all is well.
