Hi,

here is an image to show what I'm talking about.

I've tweaked the settings (offset, roundness, segments and all the test) but they never render totally smooth; what I'm working on with this is a beveled section of wood at the bottom of a wardrobe, and this doesn't look quite right.

Any suggestions?

thanks,

gubar

Looks fine to me. Just looks like your bevels are picking up some highlights.

When you get a texture on there, and some real lighting setup, you should fine.

Ok then, that's cool. The transition between flat and rounded just didn't look correct to me, but I guess when it's textured and lit it'll make a difference.
