<<Pls re-check the object to confirm that smoothing is enabled. If it is, then
I image the faceting is there when you render the oibject in solid color also,
it's just less noticeable.>>
I checked, and smoothing is enabled. I looked at the solid-color rendering
again, and you are right — if I look hard enough, I can discern the facets.
However, with the material applied, the facets really stand out.
I think the problem is that the material pattern is not continuous from one
facet to the next. It looks as if separate strips of material have been
randomly applied to each facet. Is there a cure for this?
