  • Why the weird shading?

    Posted by Ari Grunzeweig on September 30, 2012 at 7:53 pm

    Hi,

    I’m far from an expert in C4D.
    I created this using the Arrowmaker plug-in and its extrude NURBS function.
    The plug in is awesome! But I can’t figure out how to fix this shading issue.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Ari

    Not sure how this plugin works. Does it create a spline or does it define its own ‘arrow’ object?

    One possible solution would be to lower the phong shading angle on the Extrude NURBs phong tag some, but I think that would only be hiding some of the geometry issues. Another guess is that the Fillet may be misbehaving, try changing the settings on the Extrude NURBs Caps and see what you get.
