• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Max/Gmax Modelling Tip; Cutting Out Panels

Yes, the slice tool still adds vertices to the invisible edges.
The cut tool does not and so don't shape merges and booleans.
Actually booleans do work better in e-mesh than in e-poli.
 
one thing to be aware of with the cut tool: you must be sure about where you place the verts (cuts) because if you need to move them, your UV's can and will suffer....
 
This all goes to show that foreward planning will help to keep last minute changes to a minimum.
Now to go change that droptank...
I want to design bathrooms cuz I like to plan ahead...:running:
