All my round objects now show hexogonal facets. On all my lands in multiple sims. I cannot create a round object...it appears faceted...hexogonal. Anyone else seeing this?? Is this related to Havok4? (I just loaded the latsest download and all was OK for about anhour...then all round things became faceted...awful.

Havok 4 is ONLY on the Beta Grid-have you checked your preferences if the level of detail is still high enough?

All objects that had round beginings are now showing hex. I don't know if this is relate to Havok or not - but the cooincidence is odd. Not related to log-off then on...tried that first thing. NOT a newbie this is an issue. I have submitted a trouble ticket.

Me too, I built an archway and it looks awful. This is on the main grid not on the Beta. I hope the Rolling Restart tomorrow fixes it.

Did they change the LOD stuff for normal prims or something?

I saw this the other night and it was all weird until I zoomed in.. After that, things looked normal.

Yes I have the LOD issues with various attachments on my AV is well, namely my horns. They look like you have turned down the level of prim detail until you scroll/zoom in on it, then then they gain all their rounded detail back again. With any luck LL should have that fixed soon (One would hope).

I've noticed this too on cylinders that I've been building with... but not spheres or cones.

Round Objects appear hex - in Standard grid

This continus to ba a problem. All round objects new or old have no "round"content. All have hex appearence. The Second Life Release Candidate so far seems ok to me - But I have a friend who has this problem in the Release Candidate.
