Glad it helped.

Btw there’s also an alternative… use nurbs ;)

Do it in 2 gos then fix and heal the projections afterward.

Closed loops always made meshwalking kneeling down (it’s really hard for an
algoritm to figure out what direction you’d want to walk without pelting,
and that’s not in XSI yet sadly).

Subject: Contourstretch Subprojection on closed loop?



I'm playing with the contourstretch subprojection and I'm having no luck
whatsoever getting it to work on a closed loop... is this possible?  It
works fantastically the second I delete one row of polys from the loop and
open it, but when closed it's chaos inducing!



Any tips?



Thanks,



DAN
