Hi all. Ive bought some trees models and they are awesome, but in C4D the leaves are not looking as they supposed to. I know what's happening but not sure if there is a way of fixing it without creating additional polygons. ill try to explain the issue:
So this as leaf mesh in 3ds max. it has nice 4 quads. as you can see they are 'bending'/warping heavily but this is how it supposed to look.
When i bring it to C4D the benddig/warping doesn't happen, the top corner verts are connected, it still is a non-planar quad polygon but it connects the side verts rather then the top and middle one. There is no physical edge being created there - still just a quad. Cant show it better,. hopefully this is clear enough.
Now ive managed to get it to look correct and i can do whole tree at once, by selecting all the edges, Shrink selection which leaves only the middle edge selected and beveling it one time at 0 value. that creates one additional polygon. but i end up with 2 edges in the same spot , this might cause problems later.
Is there a way of forcing it to behave the same way as in max ?
Thanks.
And that how it render from a different angle vs how it suppsoed to render:
