I modeling a stadium with 3ds max.The stadium is about 55.000 seats.If I add so many seats, the stage gets tired.How can I place the seats by keeping the number of polygons low.

If you're using Arnold, I would try using Procedurals to keep things light

Hi @yemremrgl ;

For such situations, Proxy objects are preferred. It almost uses no ram during modeling, and does not force your GPU, thus you get a smoother viewport navigation, and less ram usage. Render quality will be exactly the same.

-Finish your 3d model, shading, texturing with one of your seats,

-Convert it into a proxy object

-Import your proxy object to your scene

-Duplicate

Kind regards;
