Civil 3d Topography Import - Low Resolution Mesh Problems

Does anyone know if it's possible to increase the resolution of the toposolid mesh generation? I've imported/linked contour lines at 0.25m and 1.0m intervals from a Civil 3D model into Revit, but when I try to make a toposolid from it I get terrible results. You can see this here in the center of this screenshot:

The straight lines are the contours of the grading from C3D, and the erratic polygons are Revit's approximation of all the points. Obviously, this mesh won't do for my prototyping, so I need to refine the mesh to adhere more strictly to the contours I've imported. Any suggestions?

 

Note: I cannot link topography using the dedicated tool because I'm a student and don't have access to Autodesk Docs. I don't know if that would solve it, but I thought I would mention it in case. Thank you!

Hello. I have notice this issue too. The best way i have found to make topography from mesh import is by using toposurface with this DYN file, with an older version of Revit (worked for me with 2020 version).
