-Decimate is a modifier that simplifies the model's polygons and complexity in order to reduce the computer's processing load. This step should be followed by [[en:blender:smoothing|smoothing]], beautify and shade smooth.+Decimate is a modifier that simplifies the polygons and complexity of the model to reduce the processing load on the computer. This step should be performed by [[en:blender:smoothing|smoothing]], beautify and shade smooth.
