wire shader angle restriction

[Konichowaa]

Hi, is there a way to restrict the wire shader effect to let's say all 90° angles, and thus not for the triangulation of certain plain surfaces (where untriangulate function doesn't work)?

thanks for any suggestions!

Hi there,

You could try selecting the mesh and use the ''melt'' function if untriangulate doesn't work.

thanks Bengamin, I always used dissolve to do something similar,

but for some triangles, they seem ok (n-gon) in the viewport but render a 'ghost triangle edge'

There is an option to render or not hidden edges. Screenshot is from 3ds Max, but maybe the same functionality exists in C4D implementation too.

yes, the same option is available in c4d,
but is was disabled already.
If I enable it, all the boards get an extra diagonal wire edge/triangled, just like your printscreen

I'm attaching a piece of the house where you can see no triangles in viewport but the edge renders (IR/VFB).

Thanks to anyone for help!

I believe the ghost triangle is because the points are still there, if they are deleted as well it should render as expected. ;)

Hmm interesting. Thanks for the file, I see the mesh is rather clean. I'll keep trying to figure it out...

Hi Konichowaa, did you ever figure out how to get rid of the extra edges?
I tried the "melt" function that Beanz suggested but these edges are still rendered.
“ALL Edges” off
I tried to replace wire with the curvature shader, but I can’t get the same sharp edge like the wire shader.
Any ideas?

thats more or less, what I asked for here:

We need phong restriction for wireshader, AO and curvature shader.

Unfortunately no news for 1 year

No I didn't resolve the issue, even when deleting the polygon and reconstructing it with closepolygonhole or bridge tool. At the end, I cleaned it up a bit in photoshop, the new remove tool is bliss :-D ...


so also  +1

Thanks guys for the info.
I thought, I “quickly” set this up in c4d standard with a Sketch Mat - LOL, after years of corona I can’t remember how to set up a native c4d mat scene.
