Regrouping in Max 8?
polycounter lvl 18
Like I said in the Wip Thread I´m currently learning Max.
I´m doing one of Poop´s lowpoly modeling tuts right now and have come to a point where i can´t continue.
I have a head made of a box and a body made of a cylinder...now i want to weld the vertexes of the neck to the head.
Because they´re two seperate objects i can´t edit both at the same time (i can´t select the vertexes of the head while the body is selected).
Now my question:
Is there a way to regroup these two parts so i can edit both like one group?
Poop seems to be able to edit the vertexes of all groups at will but i really have no clue where i could configure that.
Thanks in advance :]

the simplest way to do this is just to select one, and in the Editable Poly rollout, look for the "Attach" button, then select your other object with Attach activated (or use Attach List to get a name display floater you can pick objects from).
Or I think you can select both objects and apply an Edit Poly modifier, then collapse them, but i'm not sure if that works. Attach is the way to go.
Thx for the fast reply Mop!
My cursor changed.
I don´t have the small yellow box or the axes to move anymore...they´re kinda missing.
