Models
The key to a good quality AI aircraft model is low polygon counts and multiple levels of detail (LOD) in the model. Models with high polygon counts and only one or two LOD's will drain your system resources and reduce frame rates. AI aircraft modellers have begun to consider these factors, and combined with a good quality layered paint kit, more and more third generation AI models are appearing.
Ultimate GA have searched the net and our aim here, is to share our recommended models with you.
