Mr. Heinrich von Zadow 9 Report post Posted August 16, 2021 Dear Anand, I took a look at the hull surface you started with. The control polygon looks a bit distorted. I suggest, you sort that out first -- especially the bow region seems to have some folding issues, as you can tell from the attached screenshots. After adjusting the control polygon in this region a little and sorting out a few other things (which probably won't occur if you start with a better surface right away) I managed to get everything to work as intended, although you might want to spend some more time on the fairing! Most importantly you should focus on getting the control points shown in the following picture into a straight line (the middle one is the corner of the surface and there is one point currently very close to it, which needs to be exactly the same!) To adjust the control points, you can use the edit mode: I also moved the project to our latest release of CAESES5 which is why the file type is now a *.cdbc.
