Question about textures and assembly performance

[Anonymous]

I have placed a galvanized texture on my bolts iParts so I can easily tell what bolts in an assembly is galvanized. Will this slow down the performance dramatically? This assembly has around 2000 fasteners in it. Should I give up the texture and just make the galvanized bolts a noticably different color? -- IV R8, sp1 Dell PWS360, 2.6ghz, P4 2 Gb ram nVidia FX1000 6.14.10.5303 Driver 1260x1024x32 bit

If it does start affecting performance, you can always just turn off the reflections and textures in the Application Options. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian R.
