Polygon Cruncher reduces the number of polygons of your objects without changing their appearance. You keep all details even at a high optimization ratio. You also keep texture information, vertex colors, and user-defined normals. You protect object borders, material boundaries, UVs seams... You can optimize taking care of the symmetry of your objects.
MagicCruncher is included and allows an automatic optimization process.

Polygon Cruncher for Autodesk® Maya® includes 3 different modules:

- A command plugin that allows real-time optimization in the Maya viewers.
Select one or more polygonal nodes then type polyCrunch in the mel script editor.
A Polygon Cruncher node is added and connected to the selected meshes and becomes part of the Maya 3D flow.

- A batch process module for generating different LODs from your Maya 3D assets (command batchPolyCrunch)

- A StandAlone application for optimizing your 3D assets that come from various file formats (sketchup, wavefront, stl, lightwave...). This module includes batch processing for optimizing a whole folder.

It also includes the MagicCruncher feature which automatically defines the best optimization ratio for your 3D assets.
