      i have a little question concerning rendering.

      what do i generally have to do to make the rendered cylinders look smooth and round like the left one in SU??

        I don't know Maxwell so I might be wrong, but I know that some SU's internal renderers need a grouped geometry in order to render a smoothed geometry correctly. So if you already have a smooth geometry try by grouping it.

          That would be my advice, too. On the Twilight forums I read that it is due to something in SU itself so it may apply in other renderers, too.
