(Novice) Error Message: "The selected mesh has no surface triangles" (but i have already tetrahedralized)


Recommended Posts

I'm trying for the first time to work with gravity and various 'Solids' attributes (like organic mass/tissue etc) . I imported an object i worked on in Zbrush. Then worked out it needed to be a tet, so converted it using tetrahedralize. Now I get the error message you can see in the pictures that states "The selected mesh has no surface triangles" - but I converted it already! What am i doing wrong here? Any help would be enormously appreciated.

Thank you very much in advance

If you MMB on the tetrah node you'll see it is sans-polygons, so change 'Output' to 'Polygons and Tetrahedra'. You can also just merge the original mesh to with a tetrah-mesh - the overriding idea is that the FEM solver now collides polygons and tetrah.
