Hmmm... Interesting (if only for "Why The F*k" purposes...) Does Vue have a "smoothing angle" that kicks in? That might account for it. If I have time tomorrow (and if I remember), I might frt about with this, starting from a cube, then smoothing etc. til the poly count differs... It'd be nice to know... (Unless, of course, anyone more knowledgable chimes in..) Cheers, Diolma
