I also thought that Bleder did the sub-surfacing in real-time. > I've just thought that I might be able to get a really nice smooth but > higher poly model by using nurbs surfaces to model half of the fuselage, > say.

One advantage of using nurbs surfaces is that you can set the resolution. So if you need a low poly model you just reset the resolution of you nurbs surface and reconvert it to a mesh. It's a good idea to keep your original nurbs surface and convert a duplicate of it. -- Roy Vegard Ovesen _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
