Welcome to the Polycount Wiki!

The Polycount Wiki is a catalog of information aimed at artists working in game development, whether professional or hobbyist.

 * Lighting -> Move into environments
 * Texture Coordinates -> Split into Environments/Characters
 * Texturing -> Split/Mirror into Environments/Characters

#!wiki comment/dotted
 * How To Contribute on a separate page.
 * Game Statistics can be linked from Game Industry. Shaders can be linked from Game Technology and from Presentation.
 * Adam is interested in revamping [[http://www.ericchadwick.com/portfolio/glossary/|the old glossary]] that I shared on polycount back in 2001 or so, the idea is we could add links in our pages to standard definitions.
 * Not sure where we would include any game-specific tutorials. For now, we could link to them from '''History of Polycount''', but eventually we may need a dedicated section (not really a Discipline or a Tech).

 * Glossary looks great, seems like a perfect solution.
 * added Game Engines category under technology.  This seems perfectly reasonable to me, what do you think?
