Hello, me again.
Just wondering why, when importing a low poly model, faces are missing from model?
I ran the topology check:
However in Blender everything looks as expected
Trying to improve my low-poly workflow but can’t see what is going wrong, if I clean topology in RC it introduces incorrect geometry
Hi Mr_Joshua_R,
what are your import settings?
I suppose the provided polys are too small and therefore filtered automatically.
Do you see this message during import?
Is the result same for both options?
No I don’t see that message, as you can see in my original post the report says there are 0 non-manifold edges and it has been modelled to avoid that issue however it does say “non-manifold vertices: 1”
Model import settings are as follows:
When I triangulate the mesh I can see the top area probably could have better topology however the lower porch area highlighted, to me, appears like it should be fine
cheers 
Is it possible to share that model?
Low_poly_building.mtl (70 Bytes)
Low_poly_building.obj (45.2 KB)
Thank you for your data.
I opened it in CloudCompare and re-saved as OBJ and the model is imported as it should:
I am not sure what is the problem, but I suppose it will be something with the normals.
Is this happening for all formats?
I’ve just tried fbx and that has worked correctly. I think the issue is probably the obj export option, both legacy and the current exporter in 3.6 throw up the same issue, so i guess for now ill stick to fbx
Hello, I’ve watched the very interesting tutorial on how to limit the number of polygons in a mesh using Blender. (link)
When I import my model (.obj format) into RC, I also have faces that disappear.
Model in Blender
It could be that the faces are oriented inward, and therefore cannot be easily seen in RealityCapture. Invert the faces in Blender, and let me know if that helped.
