RE: Overlapping Splines -Please Help
by Raivan Hall on Oct 30, 2009 at 6:58:42 am

I'm a new user to C4D- pretty sure this problem has not been addressed in the forum-and I'm trying to create a 3D animation from an Illustrator logo file. I've taken my curvy logo and separated the splines in Illustrator. Here's the problem- the logo was made WITH overlapping splines. So, once I bring it into C4D- drop the splines into an extrude nurbs object and apply some caps and rounding adjustments, turn the Extrude Nurbs object into a polygon, apply materials, and then bring the polygons back together to form the logo- I still get these terrible jagged edges even though I separated the splines in Illustrator before importing to C4D. What do I do? I've spent hours upon hours of toiling with this problem. My gratitude to anyone that can help is boundless!

Can't you post some pics showing the problem? I'm having a little trouble visualizing it.

Here is an example of what I'm talking about. In this example I tried not using the fillet caps and I still get this kind of jagged stuff. This is not an anti-aliasing issue- I'm using best settings for that in my preferences.

Adam,

Thanks for responding. I discovered my logo had extra points in it which I'm guessing are throwing C4D off.
