[SA, 3Ds Max] Mesh smooth model problem

[Davve95]

Somone know how to do mesh smoothing with SA models without them being broken? 

 

I have been shown sometimes, but it is something I'm missing.

It happens because the vertices arent actually connected, they are just overlapping in the same exact location, youll want to fix that.

Also turbosmooth/subdivision does not work well with triangulated models, you want square faces and control loops to keep the edges in check.

Something more like this works better

 

I recommend watching some general modelling tutorials, Arrimus3D has a good channel on youtube.
