I believe it is the Volume Selector. It makes it so that it selects vertices or faces that are contained within a specific volume(box,sphere,cylinder, etc).
hello! I always have a problem with this type of geometry (irregular shape with tons of vertices on the top and few on the botton). I cut this shape and now I need to connect vertices. How do it properly to achieve the best edge flow? I know that this is flat surface and many mistake will be forgiven. and this is what I…
Also a little trick for shaping new polygons. Select all the vertices of your object and do hide selected. Then go into edge mode, and add the new edges you need. Especially in cases where you need to improve roundness of a cylinder you could add an edge in between all existing edges. Then go back to vertex mode, and now…
Cool! Thx! I even disabled those graphite toolset, thought it was just a 'visual duplicate' of common Max-tools. lol 'Straighten loop' does the job for me! Is there a way to choose the 'slope' of that edge-loop? So I can adjust it without changing the Y-position of my vertices? Or do I just have to put my vertices in the…
Algecir Sliced cylinder http://prntscr.com/f5th54 Pull vertices and shell,http://prntscr.com/f5thmw Turbosmooth http://prntscr.com/f5thze Not sure if it looks same as this.
Also is there any reason you have to connect the cylinder to the gun? If it is left as floating Geo then you save hassle / vertices by not having to cut it up and join it.
I'm new to modeling and I'm having an issue with an extrude I've done. I've extruded in and its left a few faces on the bottom. I'm trying to delete them however it leaves an edge and 3 vertices that i can't delete. After deleting them it leaves it like this I've also tried using the delete edge/vertices tool and I've also…
Are you using Maya? You have to Ctrl+Del to delete edges plus vertices involved. And also, delete that middle edge of the arrow, so it becomes a square.
@earlgrey Hey, you can find examples on how to deal with that in page 162, basically you have to use one of the vertical edges of the cylinder to support the extrusion.
