Hi there! :) I'm importing an architectural 3D model from AutoCAD to Vue Pro. The problem is those curves around my model don't seem to appear smooth enough in Vue, and I get what you see in the pic. I have already tried to smoothen the obyect up double-clicking on it and changing the angle value, but with no good results. Any ideas about what to do would be appreciated, thanks in advance! Luca

Luca, you have to do it in AutoCad, before export, in AutoCad, go to tools, options, change your arc and circle smoothness to 400, change your segments in polyline curve to 16, change your rendered objects smoothness to 10, change contour lines per surface to 8, when you export the model out as a 3ds, you have to change the 3ds option box, the auto smoothing to 120 degrees....then you should see a huge difference.

What's that?? The model you show is Alain Gracia's model created especially for me and the shot you show is not from AutoCad but from my image you can see at the link above. Guitta

Sharen, you did not need to delete the post. Can I undelete it again? lucacolan used an extract of my image to ask this question insteed of using a screenshot of his own model:-(. I don't know why. Guitta
