Hey peoples,
It was a few weeks back I posted this question but just in case anyone cared - it transpired that the geometry must be defunct. I'd written a script that, based on a set of conditions would duplicate geometry if needed. At first, I assumed it was my stupidity (which it may still transpire to be true) but, having tested the script on a bunch of other scenes with different geometry, it worked. So the only conclusion I can make is that it was either a) duff geo, b) a duff scene or c) all the above. thanks for you're suggestions ( I did have a look into them all ) g ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ben Beckett Sent: 04 April 2012 16:27 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Duplicate Polymesh Have you tried freezing the model, or setting it ZYZ as a natural pose.! this has help me in the past.

Would be interesting to say what'd say...
