IB1 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Hi I have used cap to smooth an area and reduce the polygon count, but when rendered it has creases. These are the same creases I see when I switch form Poly edit to Mesh edit. How can I render and keep the smooth look I have when in Polygon mode?

Cad64 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Can you provide some screenshots showing this creasing? And make sure you have "Edged Faces" turned on so I can see your topology. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IB1 Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share Posted April 18, 2013 The solution I found was to make the cap areas smaller. Stopping long thin triangles improved the situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raudel Solis Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 If it is something like a bottle cap you can create its profile using a spline or a nurbs curve.. followed by adding the Lathe Modifier. then make sure to check weld core. You can learn more about the Lathe Modifier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
