Hi Tim,

Is it possible to create a mesh from a solid model?

I mean:
1- Start modeling with solids.
2- Applying a Catmull-Clark mesh.

Thank you

Antoine

You would have to covert object type to mesh unless you start with a mesh block and then apply the Clarky.

Not a suitable Quad Mesh. The quys we license the SubD to NURBs technology did mention they were working on a Remesh tool that I'm looking forward to getting more info on.

In that video, is that not a mesh to start with?

Hi Tim,

Quick question, sorry if the answer is not:
Is Remesh the same as Retopologize?

See this 3DCoat link

Yes. I've played around with the 3D-Coat stuff along with the subd to nurb tools. They work well together.
