mic Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 (edited) hello! very simple question: i have a bad-topology-geometry with 'double faces' (normals in the opposite directions).. how can i delete the duplicated ones? upd. one solution i found - sort SOP, sort by distance to zero-point( or any other), so each double face will follow by pair, and delete SOP every second in two.. but maybe there is more elegant decision?)

thekenny Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 facetSOP? try orient polygons. your points would have to be consolidated though.. worth a shot. -k hello! very simple question: i have a bad-topology-geometry with 'double faces' (normals in the opposite directions).. how can i delete the duplicated ones?upd. one solution i found - sort SOP, sort by distance to zero-point( or any other), so each double face will follow by pair, and delete SOP every second in two.. but maybe there is more elegant decision?)

kubabuk Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Hi, Just thinking aloud, if you have double faces, their pivots share same positions in space. So what you can do is to build a loop, iterate face one by one and remove all of the duplicates with same pivot coordinates. Post a screen grab, maybe there is even easier solution to your problem. cheers, kuba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mic Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 (edited) thank for answers, fuse SOP, facet SOP doesn't help me, your idea, Kubabuk is, as i think, more complex than [sort SOP -> delete SOP], but as for me i'd like to see how to create such loop, can't you post an example for education?) the binary geo attached test.rar Edited February 18, 2009 by mic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mic Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 cleaned upmangic thank you, Mangi, but, first of all your attached file isn't cleaned up( i suppose your are mistaken and zipped not that file), and also as i said i have the result cleaned up geo, i wanted to know any suggestions on 'how to'..)

kubabuk Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hi all, Nice one Petz! I noticed small issue though. When any of the face's XYZ position is equal 0 sorting doesn't work. Of course you can move the geometry a bit off the axis and bring it back afterwards but here's a quick fix in python if anyone's interested. cheers kuba remove_dupl.hip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
