Yes, in 80s and 90s, then we lost the technology that allowed us to make it.

Lowpoly was banned in 2005 after the Phong Massacre in Indonesia the previous year. Modern applications force-subdivide even simple shapes to a minimum of 1250 polygons. Check it out, even Blender's basic cube is exactly 1536 polygons.

All the models, textures and scene/project files are there, carrying dates between spring 1991 and summer 1994.

They all load perfectly into 3D Studio and 3D Studio MAX.

I am an underground lowpoly modeler, it has been my occupation for 8 years now, I can get by by selling my services to third world studios but my government is very harsh on me, 2 of my bank accounts have already been frozen upon discovering of my activities, and my clients can only be communicated with through encrypted communication systems. I don't know where the future will bring me, even the extremists here are shy to talk about a possible shift from 5000 to 2000 minimum triangle meshes.

Things used to be better before the Poly Crash.
I was forced to peddle my meshes in seedy back alleys and run down bars. I used to figure it was better to sell low poly in person rather than take chances online, until Johnny Law stopped turning a blind eye to it. You know those pigs are keeping the real lowpoly to themselves.
I figured it was best to get out of the game when one of my friends got busted for unlicensed polygons. He's doing 25 for it, which apparently was a slap on the wrist compared to some of the other people busted for it.
Now I just deal in low-res textures. Here's hoping that doesn't start an international crisis. Though there's been some disturbing things swirling around the toilet bowl. If you know what I'm talking about.

I am part of a wide-spanning international syndicate that smuggles high class low poly art from famous artists over international borders. We use the latest high tech. Some of us have even started use NFT with fake images as cover that hide the actual image in the pixels.
We use advanced encryption methods, but Interpol is breathing down our necks. Last week one of my colleagues was shot while trying to escape an large scale undercover action.
Collectors pay up to 10 million for brand-new works of famous artists so of course most governments sent their best men to break the black market.

export model to lightwave 6.0, install and use .qrt plugin to handle UV coordinates. Google this for github link and instructions. then export to ply format from lightwave, send it to any version of cura, you dont need to save, just close and upload to anyconv.com. take this output and parse data into human readable obj format. You will see a text document with UV coordinate info from the qrt plugin. You can handle the rest from here my friend.
