Hi Andy, actually the default is 10 degrees, which already produces quite dense display meshes, so having it set tighter than that at 5 degrees is not very good, that would make really heavy display meshes.

Well maybe that was the problem, mine was set at 5.... I figured that was the default but apparently I had changed it at some point without realizing what I was doing. It looks like that may have been the source for the lack of speed.

On a side note what does the add detail to inflections do?

Hi Andy,

> On a side note what does the add detail to inflections do?

It analyzes surface fragments to see if they have a kind of "S" type shape where curvature is changing from one side to another (that's an inflection point), and breaks those down with more triangles.

Those kinds of areas tend to create some pretty noticeable display shading artifacts if they don't get refined enough. There was a recent example here:

In the future I'd like to try and manage the display density more automatically, something like start with a coarse mesh initially and then in the background calculate higher density ones if there is plenty of memory available.

I like that idea! v3? ;-D j/k

Yeah this video card is overkill for MoI :)

Yeah, but underwhelming for other modeling programs... ;-)
+1 for MoI
