Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Oct 05 5:47 am)
You can also insure that a prop or figure will always be unsmoothed,
so you won't have to be surprised by the bulging cylinders each time!
Go through the PP2 or CR2 file and change each
smoothPolys 1
to
smoothPolys 0
If the file is older than Poser 6, it won't have the smoothPolys line,
but you can still add
smoothPolys 0
to the file. Insert it after each "customMaterial" line.

Just FYI, you can also decrease the crease angle and it has the same effect.
(The box just under smooth polygons in the properties window.)
I had a shotgun prop that bloomed like that on the barrel. But I didn't want
to disable smoothing entirely, so just playing around I was able to get suitable
results by setting the crease angle from the default of 80 down to 5.
That way I still had some smoothing on the stock, but the barrel didn't
look weird.
Note: you need to leave Smooth polygons checked for this to work.
I've been trying to set up different smoothing groups - the way the poser manual says, in order to create creases, and darn Poser appears to be ignoring them. Arrrgh!
Is it possible to have different smoothing angles on a prop... or do i need to split the prop in several items, then parent them to one another to have different smoothing angles?
