Can you remove peeled seems in 3ds Max?

diglett

If so, how.. I tried stitching selected, which kinda worked but I couldn't get rid of these seems. Suggestions?

musashidan

Just grab all faces you want as part of a new island and hit peel again.

diglett

I want to remove these seems completely, but I'll try that and see what happens

diglett

yeah that just added more seems, not what I'm trying to do. I want to *remove* peeled seems

Search the Help file before asking questions like this. This has many benefits: you will often get the answer faster, you won't bug others with simple problems that are already covered in the Help file, and you'll find out other things you didn't know about the software.

That is a helpful resource.. but that did not help me find a solution.. I read both "setting up seems" and "peeling" tut from your link, which I already know, and nothing was mentioned on your link about removing peeled seems. I don't know why I am getting responses about creating seems when my question is specifically about removing seems. hahaha, what is going on? am I not being clear? Am I missing something here?

You didn't read it I guess? About halfway down, step 10.

Maybe if you understood how unwrapping works you wouldn't laugh at the answers we've given.

you're not adding seams, you're over-riding them with different ones to create new islands.

I always found it confusing dealing with seams in Max since schooling days. For example in Blender you can just simply mark or unmark seams...

@FourtyNights  Hold Alt to remove seams.

FourtyNights

@monster Well, that's interesting, and probably very helpful for the OP as well.

musashidan

@monster I think OP was referring to unwrap seams rather than pre-unwrap/pelt seams.
