smoothing groups turbosmooth issue

hi,

 

first of all.. i`m kind off a newbie so sorry for any stupid questions but i`m kinda stuck.

 

I have a turbosmooth on my editible poly, and i want to create one sharp edge.

i divided them into smoothing groups (one for the sharp part and one for the rest)

normally i would have this sharp edge by doing this, but this time nothing happens.

please help

 

thanks

hello,
you just need to check the "smoothing Groups" checker in the "Surface Parameters".

but... I strongly recommend to use poly modeling technique to tighten the edge. you can check the video tutorial of Grant Warwick- Hard Surface Essentials. link:
