mesh feature ? - Polyloop

Hello. Can Amapi Pro produce a mesh using a NURBs object ? Thanks.

Convert Nurbs to Poly ?
Of course.

One way is to collapse a NURB object's Dynamic Geometry.

You can modify tesselation by chossing "Smooth tool" after erasing DG.

NURBS objects have extra points in their facets, so you'll want to avoid using the Smooth Tool on them (even if you've converted them to polygons beforehand).

Otherwise, you end up with lumps on your surfaces.

Don't smooth after kill all DG !!!

Erase dynamic DG, keep last nurbs level, clic on smooth and chosse crack free and change level of detail you want.

After, you can convert it to poly, and export (and erase equal point if needed).
