Chamfer Edge Problem when smoothed

[aashroff]

Have you checked if all the vertices are merged?

and turbosmooth don't really like when you have triangles in your mesh.

Not sure if there are any other reasons it would do that.

Thanks for the reply, yes the verts are welded and my mesh is entirely quads. Does anyone else have any suggestions?

Thanks

In "Edge Selection mode" select all the edges you don't want to be treat by the "TurboSmooth" Modifier, then chance the crease value from 0.0 (default) to 1

Hope it helps. :)

Works, but I wouldn't advise to do so.

Add another edgeloop around the hole, maybe anti´other one in the chamfered edge.

That looks like the effect of unwelded vertices. I know you said they're welded, but are you sure they're not just fused? If not, I would try deleting some of the face and creating new ones. I have found in the past that faces arranged in certain ways, regardless of being all quads, can still produce weird results. It's better practice to continuously run your edges instead of stopping them at the corners

ie.

What you have there are some POLES.Verts where either 3,5 or greater then 5 edges converge.Essential for controling edgeflow when sub-D modeling,but often produce smoothing issues.

also,the edge loops seem badly spaced.You should try and clean up the topology to achieve quad faces that are uniform(to an extent)in size and relatively square in shape.
