- The homepage’s pilot example pairs a 56-line model file with a stated output of 8,044 triangles and three animations.
Field notes
The example model is a bean airline pilot: its file specifies capsule, box, sphere, and cylinder parts, materials, mirrored limbs, rig pivots, and walk, wave, and idle animations. The page says developers can switch a project style so models share presets for shapes, triangle budgets, materials, and scene look; it lists five included presets.
