Square Piping inside Navis

After exporting from Revit 2014 I am now getting square piping in my navis model.  But it only happens with piping under 1/2" in size.  Anything over 1/2" seems to be fine.  With Revit 2013 all the exports were fine.  Any reason this would happen?  Thank you in advance for your help

This is probably because they added a numerical Facets option inside of the 2015 Navisworks Export Settings dialog and for some silly reason the default is 1.  So, you'll need experiment to see what number works best and re-export.  For what it's worth, I tried 10 and it worked great, but that's the only setting I tried..

Thank you for your post.  In this case using the stock configurations with the controls, I do see some faceting in the piping.  I have made a quick video illustrating the differences between the 6” pipe and the ½” pipe from Revit.  You will see in the video (no sound) that the ½” is boxy in shape (slight) but can be adjusted possibly with the options.  I have uploaded my video and sample NWC for comparison.  I hope this helps.

Does 2014 have the same options as 2015? Because I'm having the same issue but it's in the Revit 2014 platform as Travis mentioned. If it does where is that located?
