Rebuild Errors w/SP4

Rebuild Errors w/SP4

Rebuild Errors w/SP4

(OP)
I have begun to notice some parts that were created pre SP4 with "questionable Geometry" now blowing up in SP4.

They will blow up on machines with SP4 but when I load them on a machine with SP3.1 they are fine.

FYI

RE: Rebuild Errors w/SP4

What do you mean by "questionable Geometry" ?

cheers

RE: Rebuild Errors w/SP4

(OP)
I guess I mean, I can understand why it would blow up.  It looks like it should have blown up but it never did until SP4.

RE: Rebuild Errors w/SP4

Maybe they have built more "intelligence" into SP4 ... or tighter rules?

I'm curious, can you show an example of the "questionable Geometry"?

cheers

RE: Rebuild Errors w/SP4

(OP)
This image shows the "QG"  It's the area where the lofted cylinders change direction to form a sweep:  This was fine in SP3.1
