Hello,

I'm trying to get this simple text path import from .ai to shatter. I imported, polyextruded and beveled. Got points, then converted to poly's to make more shatters. But no action is happening. Can someone give me a hint as to what I'm missing?



Much thanks.

-steve

Steve ,
It might help if you lock your file SOP.So users will see your ai curve. Then they can help.

Oh, I didn't realize that the lock option needed to be set to save the geometry with a file. This one has the .ai file locked and also has a copy of the file in a .obj format, hopefully one will save with the file.

Thanks again!

Steve taking a brief look at your scene :-

You have nodes all over the place and you seem to of ignored all the problems that existed before you even got to dividing up your geometry

Fist fix all the intersecting edges or your extrude will not work ! also did you see the scale of your text ? . I have started you off , fix all the other letters.
