Efficient assets provide Experience creators greater flexibility to add more assets and logic to their creations.
As a rule, every asset should be an optimised design. Strive for minimalism and simplicity in shape and add more detail in texture.
MAXIMUM RECOMMENDATIONS
The following guidelines are the absolute maximum recommendations for special circumstances in order to prioritise play quality in The Sandbox Game.
Maximum Size:
512 x 512 x 512 voxels
Maximum Faces:
5,000
Face count tends to affect GPU usage
Maximum Nodes:
175
Node count tends to affect CPU usage
Face Count tends to affect your GPU usage. A GPU is a graphics processor built into your computer's graphics card, used to accelerate graphics rendering. It functions side by side with your CPU, or central processing unit.
Node Count tends to affect your CPU usage. A CPU is the central processor built into your computer's motherboard, which performs basic operations on your device.
CUMULATIVE EFFECTS
Nodes, faces, and colliders are constantly calculated in the game engine, so it is highly recommended to strive for the most efficient design with most voxel art.
Assets that are intended to be used frequently such as trees should be simpler for a lower cumulative effect on play performance.
A compound entity rigged in the Animator with no motion keyframes added is calculated as having one node.
