Large Gameobject Asset very laggy. Please Help.

I have imported a .FBX file of a model of a big machine from Solidworks. This machine has a lot of little components to it. Right now I have it on a plane with one directional light.

I am using my oculus rift, and when I build the game and play it, it is quite laggy and makes me feel sick.

If there anything I can do to the model to make it smaller in filesize and a lot less laggy? Right now it is 670Mb.

I appreciate the help,

Thanks.

CAD software doesn’t produce models appropriate for realtime 3D engines. You could try some kind of polygon reducing software.

Eric,

Thanks. Would you happen to recommend any program that I could use? If not I will look around and see what I can find.

I haven’t had a need to use one yet myself, so I can’t recommend any.
