Sometimes you want (need) to create a low resolution mesh from a high resolution mesh. Using Make Live can be a good way to do this. For the sake of simplicity, I'll use a complex poly sphere ;)
Make your high res object live, either from the Status Line or the Modify menu:
Re-Meshing
Pop open the Create Polygon Tool Settings - you'll most likely want to limit the number of points to 4:
Now you may create your first quad - remember that you can drag the last point around while the tool is active with the MMB:
Now switch to the Append Polygon Tool - again, you probably want to limit points - click on an edge of the quad and place two more points:
Carry on in this manner until you have created your low res mesh.
