which is better only by the game speed painting or textures? i don’t care how long it takes to do it, which makes the game engine run faster?

Thanx

2

probably painting directly in blender, if thats what you mean.

Painting will run much faster, but you can’t be too detailed as the precision is only vor each vertex. To do really good painting, you need more polygons, which will be slower than less polygons with textures.

thanx thats what i thought

I assume by painting you mean vertex painting the meshes of the game? An answer to this would go a long way toward answering a question that I have, which was, does EVERYTHING in a game HAVE to be uv textured

No, everything doesn’t have to be UV textured, why would it?
