kopefri Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 hello, I want to get rid of the facetting of an object that appears when I export the object from AutoCad 2003 into a .3ds format and then open it in viz/max. I set the autosmooth threshhold to 60 but top and bottom still don't look satisfying. Any ideas? cheers http://www.cgarchitect.com/forum/filepush.asp?file=facets.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Hi, Your AutoCAD model needs more segments; it will always look segmented from the end. Smooth only creates the smooth effect on faces that are within the angle specified. The side and top are 90 degrees to one another, and are not smoothed, and shouldn't be smoothed. If you aren't going to see the ends, then don't worry about it. If you are, then create a model with more segments on the sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
