You could maybe use it as rough guide in Max, but then essentially completely reconstruct what you need in Max. The max tools can help improve topology of a complete mesh, but they cannot regenerate missing sections for you which seems to be what you are showing. Start by getting the early good quality isomesh into Max and show a screenshot of it in Max with 'Edged faces' on, then it will be clear what kind of topology you have and what type of approach would work best to get it the way you want.īut if I am just misunderstanding your situation and the best isomesh you have in Rhino is the poor quality one shown in later posts, then I don't see how that would be useable in Max to retopologize directly. fbx export from Rhino? Then you can use Max retopology tools on it to further refine the mesh. Then in a later image it looks like the quality of the iso mesh has deteriorated so it's not clear to me why you have 2 different isomesh's of different quality? Was the second isomesh with poor surface quality the result of further manipulations in Rhino? If so why don't you export the early iso mesh into Max via. And you say that you have that now but when you try to 'superimpose sketchy SubD skeletons on lines in Rhino' you get a mess.

Don't know what an isomesh is , but looking at the first 2 images of your first post, it looks like a perfectly good 3D geometry object to me.
