Can't figure out whats up with these polys

polygonfreak · Jan 2011

In the past when I came across this(bad smoothing) it was because I had some verts not welded or wild verts, or some edges were missing. But this time I can't seem to fix it. Any ideas would be such a big help.

Oh wait... i was using auto smooth and I just gave it a different smoothing group and fixed it... but still trying to figure out why auto smoothing doesn't work.

More than likely because you have the max angle set too high. I usually keep mine down around 30 to avoid such problems.

Changing the threshold fixed it the way I wanted it too... hell yeah, thanks man, big help.
