Where can I find what polygon count EA-made stuff have?

So I only just learned about polygon count for my CC and I've been, with my limited knowledge, trying to remove CC items with a disproportionately high polygon count. However, for what's considered "high" or "low", I only really have a few vague guides online to follow. I'd much, much rather use the stuff Maxis made as a benchmark for what CC I'm willing to allow. I use sims 4 studio for my CC.

Tldr: Does anyone know where I can find what polygon count individual sims items (made by EA, not CC) have? Such as dresses, trousers, shoes, or chairs, beds, clutter, you name it. :smile:

  • Open your CC in S4S and then under the "Meshes" tab you can see the Polycount of everything. It will be listed as Vertices and Polygons.

    Vertices are the points that connect the faces, Polygons are the faces, Vertices don't matter.

    It will show as LOD 0 (High Level of Detail), meaning if you are playing on Ultra or High graphics settings, this is what you'll see
    Then there's LOD 1 (Medium Level of Detail), again this is what you'll see if you play on Medium Graphics settings

    Some objects also have a LOD 2 (Low LOD)

    CAS Items typically have 4 LODs
