Could you please post the curves for your new tent shape that you are having a problem with so we could see them?

But Plasma is right - you need to have 4 curves on the outside part, if you have just one big joined curve that could be the problem.

Basically Network needs to be made up of 2 sets of curves that cross each other like a grid.

So for example in Plasma's file, here is one set:



and here is the other set:




Network needs curves organized in this kind of grid crossing pattern for it to work.
