I have been playing around with this feature (smoothing groups)of Meshsmooth for a few days already, and as you can see from the image I included in the following page:
, I finally figured it out how to only apply the smoothing to one specific area (the head top is not smoothed), but when it comes to using the "Control Level" I just don't get it.
As far as I understand, one would use it when needing to have more than one smoothed area. its function is to separate the smoothing groups, so each group would belong to its own control level, isn't it like this?
If it is, then am I supposed to follow a specific steps sequence for it to work? I get the feeling I am, but I don't know what is this sequence.
Take for instance the model I have showed here, what if I wanted to smooth the nose more than the rest of the face?
Should I start by increasing the Control Level dial to 1? and then select the nose polygons, then increasing the iterations? Or Should I start by the second step and leave the first step at last?
Unfortunately the Help file doesn't say enough on this
If someone is knowledgeable enough to know that this is a feature one can rely on, and that is just a matter of knowing-how, then I would be greatly thankful if you could explain how to do it.
Or, maybe I just found this feature's limitation, and you have a better way to smooth an organic model.
Either way, please let me know
Thanks in advance,
