Hey everyone.

So I'm making this trophy in 3D Maya and I want to convert it from Polygones to Sub Divisions. But when I try to convert it I get an error:

// Error: Command polyToSubdiv failed. Open Script Editor for details.

// Error: polyToSubdiv1 (Poly To Subdiv Node): Cannot create subdivision surface as the resulting surface would have more base mesh faces (1150) than the maximum allowed (1000).
// To increase maximum allowed, change Maximum Base Mesh Faces in Convert to Subdiv Options. //
// Error: Command polyToSubdiv failed. Open Script Editor for details. //

Edit: Already tried to increase the "Maximum base mesh faces". As well as trying to use the "Clean up" function. None of them work.
