Title: URGENT ! No Geometry Error
Post by: HU0164 on March 17, 2025, 02:47:28 pm

Hi,
I'm importing a 2D DWG file and I'm getting a “No Geometry” error message with the 2 Curbs objects from RailClone.
If I choose another object it works.
If I create a line in 3DS Max, it also works.

However, it's impossible to assign a “curbs” object to a line from DWG.

Hi,

I'm sorry to hear you're facing trouble with it. Curb styles use the spline's Material IDs to assign different types of curbs (ID 1 for normal curb, ID 2 for drop curb), so feel free to set the corresponding part(s) of the spline to the appropriate Material ID. Let me mention that, as posted here on our forum:

"... upon my experience, in case of importing splines from a .dwg file, its Color is used for generating the 3ds max Material ID. If you want to avoid the Edit Spline modifier step - assigning the Red color to such spline (layer) should result in ID 1 / Yellow as ID2 (as the Red color should be indexed 1 (Yellow 2) in AutoCAD)."

I hope that helps.

Best regards,

Well done!
It's definitely a Material ID problem.
Color 7 on Autocad = ID 7 3DS Max

Thanks for your help.
