This message is from the AutoCAD forum. Perhaps someone in this forum has some experience with this that they can share. "In R13 is there any way to increase the wire density of solids beyond a viewres of 20000 and facetres of 10 to get smoother curves when I 3DSOUT the drawing? I would like to end up with smoother objects in 3DStudio." Thank you, Paul

Paul Try using DXFOUT and adjusting the DXF-ARC-DEGREES = to a lower number, that may help. I presume it's the perimeter of objects against the background you want smoother, not the surface of the object? Do you use Optimize after creating dense objects? It might be worthwhile to keep the mesh density reasonable if you're importing with such high settings? Good luck -Ted Boardman
