[darkangel737]

ok i wanna make a model of a wheel like tis , im using gmax i wanna ask should i edit it by vertex or polygon , i do not know how to make those curves in as u can see in the picture , please help me . and this wheel model is for a model im working on , and i have just began i would like to know what i should not do and what i should do to make the model playable for a rpg map which is a big map . cos i do not want the rpg map to lag like crazy .

The absolutely easiest way to do it is to skin it so it'll look like that.

 

[Devine]

make a cilinder with 5 border vertexes. then skin it.
easy done and lowpoly.

 

[darkangel737]

low poly means that it wil not cause lag to the game isit? and the game wil lag if its made up of many shapes or polys? and wats cilinder?

 

[TheDivineBoss]

Cylinder:

And low-poly means just simply-made, nothing fancy. And means a small filesize too.

 

[Ribenamania]

Cilinder:

lol I thought it's called cylinder.

 

[TheDivineBoss]

Both are correct.

 

[darkangel737]

wat make a cylinder and dont need to like edit it ?? it will look so plain? how bout the rims , can like add nobs etc?

 

[TDR]

Rims, "nobs", etc. can be done in the texture.
