problem: extruding shapes

[tigrine_smiltpe]

i have problem extruding a shape:

[bombyx]

What kind of problem do U have..........Well it looks kind of easy, U convert your shape to mesh and extrude it.....I just can't see what kind of problem U have.....please explain ;)

I don't know what's exactly your problem, but if you want a "Solid" 3D extrusión, take in mind that the shape has to be CLOSED

sorry for silly post - server was busy and i was unable to post second picture (after extrusion).

ok, the problem WAS (look at the image):

btw, thanx to Reality3D : the shape was not closed, and after closing it worked out.

this is the wrong extrusion:

I might just be a face normals problem. stick a 2-side material on it to see if it shows up properly. If it does show properly then turn 2-sided off and flip the normals which need to be flipped. :hmm:

[BrandonD]

What's wrong with your extrusion? Are the normals messed up? Often you can solve spline2Mesh problems by welding verts.

[Taoizm]

Ditto with what Brandon said. Make sure that it's a solid line, and doesn't have overlapping verts.

[tigrine_smiltpe]

it's ok now. i've welded some vertexes - it helped. now the extrusion is solid :bounce:
