This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

need help with converting

Hey guys... im trying to model the Ninja Tut made by The Great Kurt but im having problems converting my poly head into a subdiv... i keep getting this Result: 0

[EDIT]

script editor messege:

doSubdivCreate( "2", { "1","1","1207","11"} );
deleteInternalValence2Verts |polySurface1|polySurfaceShape6;
polyToSubdiv -ap 0 -ch off -aut on -maxPolyCount 1207 -maxEdgesPerVert 11 |polySurface1|polySurfaceShape6;
// Warning: Nothing is selected. Select objects or components to delete. //
// Error: polyToSubdiv1 (Poly To Subdiv Node): The conversion to a subdivision surface failed.
// One or more duplicated edges were present.
// Repair the duplicate edges by selecting the polygon
// and issuing the following command, then try again:
select .e[624] .e[622] ;string $v[] = `polyListComponentConversion -fe -tv`;select $v;polySplitVertex;polyMergeVertex -d 0.0 -tx 1; //
// Error: Command polyToSubdiv failed. Open Script Editor for details. //
// Result: 0 //


Thanks, Bye....

did you select the whole poly in object mode (as oppsed to selected the verts/faces/edges?)

Was this the message in the script editor?

Sorry I should have been more observatant, you did state it is directly from the script editor :headbang:

I've never had that message before, what I would do is go to your conversion settings and reset them and try again, if it persists go to polygon>clean up and see if that works.

I'm stumped for ideas at the minute user added image

Sure, when you go to convert>poly subD etc, before you click it, there will be a small box on the right of the menu, click that it will bring up another menu. Then go file/reset settings.
