Degenerate Triangles

Post by Mike_Oxinormus »

I open sapien and run radiosity_quality 0 then when I try to run radiosity_start sapien displays something about degenerate triangles and in the debug txt I get this.

I imported the debug.wrl... But my problem is that I don't know how to fix these damn things...Any coments would be helpful thanks...

ok, I just did some more reading about degenerate triangles and I don't think that's it. I think it is the bad uvs....So if anybody can explain that to me...
