Dupli + subsurf = !?

Hi there,

I have a problem… I’ve made a plane, and a chair. The plane parented to the chair, and the chair dupliverted. Now, the plane is subdivided many times, which results of lots of chairs. Therefore, I want to turn off the subsurf-in-viewport-option. I press the button “Enable modifier during interactive display” - now it’s OFF. And the button “Enable modifier during render” is ON. Now, it should render the subsurf in the render window, but it doesn’t. It renders as many subsurf, as shown in the viewport - why does it do that? That means I’ll have to “Enable modifier during interactive display” - but then the scene gets too heavy for my computer.

What should I do?

Thanks for the report, this has been fixed a while ago already. :slight_smile:

I assume he means fixed for the next release, as I have the same problem in 2.41.

Thanks for answering… and sorry about the reporting on bug-tracker,
I’ll search more carefully next time… :o
