In this lesson we will learn how to convert NURBS surfaces into Polygons in XSI.
Converting NURBS to Polygons is a good process to learn, because not all rendering engines support NURBS. The added flexibility of converting to polygons allows geometry to be created using a NURBS workflow, but be outputted as Polygons. Experiment with conversions to find out what works best for you.
Topics covered in this lesson:
Converting a NURBS surface to a new Polygon mesh
Increasing steps to make the mesh smoother
