smooth surface problems
Hi
Im having problems aith the most basic thing. here is an image of a cylinder I made with this software. see attached I cant smooth the sides of the cylinder, I have adjusted the crease angle, and I have set the surface to smooth. how do I get the cylinder tool to draw a cylinder rather than this multi sided tube? ive read, re read and re read the manual... it seems bizarre to me that a cylinder tool dosent draw a cylinder... frustrating.. |

Re: smooth surface problems
Basically, the more segments your cylinder will have, the more smooth it will look.
In your case, you may want to double the number of segments in your cylinder (see cylinder parameters at the left side of the AC3D window when you click on the cylinder tool).

Re: smooth surface problems
No , just a bit more experimented with AC3D, that's all.
