Rex: the best freeware i've seen is QSlim...
i'll look for it & email it to you.

BTW, Blender now has a decimator too, but i believe QSlim does a better job (different algorithm)

Dreamer: Chisel? where? how much?

heh heh... you like that? my boss saw one soon after we were hit with the Magist@ virus, and thought we should have one too
(AFAIK, we did not send out any virus-loaded email, i think because we use Novell GroupWise)

so anyway, he asked me to devise one... after looking at different examples, none of them covered all the bases, so i assembled several. for those interested, this is what i came up with:

had not thought of trying raytheon... decided to just use the old mk 1's and eyeball it. did try a lot of those links before(google is very handy for finding odd stuff), the one bit I wanted(length of the wings) wasn't mentioned. Anywho I've finished my mesh(at least as finished as these things get) and am satisfied with the results. heh think ppl will either love it or 'hate' it

The cost of Chisel should be 0$ - the source code has been released (free of charge)...
Then there's webChisel - as good as the original Chisel, but works over the web.
