Seems to occur on thinner objects but objects that do have some thickness.

I can’t reproduce on MacOS or Windows with an 8.15 build.

Windows:

MacOS (changed layer colors here to black):

edit: FWIW Raytraced/Rhino Render do not draw these lines, that is done by the display pipeline essentially as a postpro step.

In addition to getting the latest version available of Rhino, you might want to update your Nvida driver to see if that helps.

A new Rhino session and it’s gone.

Using linework with the Raytraced mode gives a good effect similar to what you can do with most real-time render engines.

Trying to add linework post-production… It didn’t work out too well but I think you guys have bigger fish to fry right now.

I recall a popup that I immediately closed about a week ago. Wouldn’t hurt to get the most out of my video card given I spent the money on it. I’m WAY down on Ram (regular RAM not so much VRAM) (Windows 11 is hogging it? Or maybe Asus?), I thought I might have been dealing with a ram issue.
