Hi, how do I get a nice smooth surface with low polygon count? I can still see triangles in a shadow area.

Hi,

Sorry, these artifacts come from the shadow terminator problem which appears on pathtracers. I'm afraid that there isn't an easy solution for this without increasing the mesh polygon count.

Thanks,
