[Another smoothie please]

Just started learning AM two weeks ago. Am modeling this metal object as an excercise. It has complex surfaces with smooth and sharp edges (no porcelan.) All normals are facing out. Been tweaking this a long time but can't seem to get the creases out. Any help?

Thanks guys:

 

Rodney, you hit the right button - it was the up/down key that was doing the trick. One more question that came up - from one save to the next I can't see any of my rotoscopes in any viewport. The rotoscopes are still listed in the Project Workspace, but are not visible in the window. Transparency is set to "0", so that's not it. I tried closing the file and re-opening with the same result. I rebooted, with no difference. Ok, now what?

 

Thanks in advance...

Hi all:

 

Newbie question here. I just received my AM and am doing well getting the hang of it. I may have inadvertantly pressed a wrong button and don't know how to reset - When I do the flower power tutorial, everything is fine until I render using the 9 key. At that point, my flower looks peaked, although everything is smoothed in wireframe mode. In wireframe, petals are rounded, in render mode, they are pointed. What did I do?

 

Thanks in advance...

Thanks, looking forward to some awesome 3D modeling!!

Ok, I guess I already knew that I wanted the program. Just had to have a little push. It's on its way. Will check back often.

 

Thanks

HI:

 

I'm new to this forum and this is my first post. Last night I went to my local Fry's electronics store and asked for a user friendly 3D package - A/M. In doing a small amount of research, I heard good things, but also that the program is buggy? I am a hobbyist in 3D studies and would like to expand a little. Should I plop down the $299 or not, and if so why?

 

Thanks for your input...
