Hi,

I also had probelms with failing hexa-core mesh, but then I read the manual and tutorial, and tried the approach from in there and it worked. The tutorial was the Fin meshing one.

The trick was (I think) to do the tetra first, then smooth, do the prism layer, smooth again, do the hexa-core but not from the surface, but from the surface mesh, smooth for the last time.

hope this helps.
