Top to Chop to Sop, geo surface

Beginners

Hi,
I’m trying to convert a top to sop (with chop to), but I can’t have the surface instead of the wireframe of the shape in the geo comp.

Hi @AcidBoy,

a CHOP To SOP will only generate a line when there is no given input. You could try to use a Sphere SOP as an input to the CHOP To SOP and see if that makes visually sense.

Thanks… Not what I’m looking to achieve. I want to have the same shape as the top network but with a surface on it.

Hi @AcidBoy,

TouchDesigner currently offers no build in methods for surface reconstruction.
