Square up
Ok, I have a piece I am working on where i have smoth shifted a setion. But the only problem is that it rounds all outlying parts. I need the section to be square as it is a light that is resesed in a bumper, any ideas on how to do this?
Thanks Sean |

it says drawing failed are you attatching it using the attatch file tool? the tool is under where you type in a thread past the smilies right below options attach the file so we can all see it here .

I'm only seeing the very bottom part of the screen shot - try it as a JPEG.

Sorry for the problems. I am pretty new to lightwave and I am having some other issues with this model but i am a perfectionist and pay attention to every detail so. I am going to be working on it for a while.

If you want to make an area look more square, then you could bandsaw the rounded polygons close to the area you want to look squarer. Maybe someone else can explain this better or has any better ideas?

Okay here's a box with a similar kind of smooth shift in it to illustrate the point...
