3ds import problem

[ruben architect]

Does anyone know why gemoetri imported from rhino (3ds) appears

choppy in max. The geometry looks ok from a distance, but you zoomed in it's

difficult to understand the shape. It seems max is unable to define the faces.

Hey Ruben,

 

Two things:

 

The only way that I have had successful imports from Rhino is by selecting the "refine mesh" option under the polygon mesh detail options window which pops up in rhino when you go to export a file. Also make sure that your booleans are ok.

 

The other idea is that I know Rhino recently had a critical update (for version 4) that included a lot of bug fixes with import/export so you might want to make sure that you have the update if you have not done so already.

 

Hope this helps
