help wit paintfx and .obj

[beaker]

Paintfx can only be painted on nurbs. Just make a dummy nurbs object and paint on it and then hide it or just draw a curve on the poly surface and apply a paintfx brush to it.

thanks :)
i do that before, but i think its strange that a so powerfull soft can not paint on mesh but can apply fur on it !

:rolleyes:

It is because you can't have a curve on surface on a polygon surface. Polygons arent really smooth, they just use display tricks to get them to look smooth with the normals.

Though, I don't know why subd's dont have curve on surface yet.
