Hello,

I require polygon reduction functionality for my performer apps.
I have a 400K-vertex model that I want to reduce by a factor 5 or so.

Currently, I am evaluating OpenInventor version 2.5
OpenInventor was acquired from sgi by tgs, and tgs is now marketing
this product.

However, the results I get with OpenInventor2.5 are not satisfactory.
E.g: OpenInventor2.5's reorganisation (with ivfix e.g.) messes up my models.
The old ivfix from sgi's 2.1 version does not have this fault.

What do other performer developers use for their polygon reduction tasks?
(and stripifying tasks?)

Thanks in advance,

   Bram Stolk
