A question about the mesh created from Nurbs...
does it become triangulated? or can you control the output of the
poly-sides?
(3 or 4 sided)
I've heard "keep away form making triangles in your meshes" but I noticed on
my friends 3DSmax that the meshes for primitives are default triangles.
Does the newer version of TS (as I only have 4.3) have options to having
trianglulated meshes during the Nurbs-mesh conversion? (I know there is a
triangulate button, I'm just curious about the output from Nurbs only)
