add to the solidify modifier, an option that adds segments like the 3dsmax shell modifier

That would be nice. The Modifier has more options but you can make something similar with GN and the repeat zone node. For each iteration it will use the top layer to make another extrude. I wish we could maintain the original mesh in the output of the Extrude node (maybe a checkbox). Image Title

II hadn't thought about GN. It could be a solution for simple objects. But this method create overlapping faces, it's not clean and you need blender 4.0 for this feature Good idea thank you

GN about to be the answer for every feature request ever

I don't think this setup is ideal but it will not create overlapping faces and any new features will only be added to new versions of blender (4.0+) anyway. I also don't like to be the guy that always suggest GN solutions but in the case of Modifiers i think is valid since GN is like a "custom modifier".

imgur.com/a/61mPikF sorry I don't know how to add a screenshot in the comments, so I uploaded it to a site. If you see the marking clearly there are faces that are created between the intersections, Maybe there is a better way to do this

arduinocassol

you have to uncheck the "individual" checkbox on the extrude node

yeah I think the plan is to move the current modifiers to gn anyway
