OBJ breaks when subdevided

Every time I import an OBJ file, as soon as I subdivide it, it seems to break apart at the seams. Anyone know why this is happening and how to avoid it?

weld your mesh inside your 3d app. you have a broken mesh.

if it needs to be different pieces for some reason then you can tell Zbrush to maintain the edge

tool>geometry>crease

then divide.

Welding did the trick, however, I can’t get the Crease function to work.

I’ve even tried hiding the parts that I don’t want to subdivide and that’s not working either. The hidden parts pop back and get subdivided with the rest of the tool. That’s a separate issue, though…

Thanks for the solution.
