Macpod Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 My spheres and nicely lofted solids are being turned into ugly 'poly-sided' eyesores in 3dmax 8 with the file linking feature. I tried all the modifiers like spherize and smooth but they made no difference. Some pointers would be great. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alikashan Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 to start with what is the facetres value in cad . if it .5 set it to maximum. http://www.cgarchitect.com/vb/17108-problem-imported-dwg-3ds.html this is an old thread about the same problem and different solutions.

taprice Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I would also check the 'Surface Deviation for 3D Solids' in the Basic Tab of the File Link Settings. I usually set mine to .1 but you can go as far as .01. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neko Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 tim is right - it is best resolved in the file link manager in MAX, as he mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
