hmm sorry to derail a bit. First day trying Modo In Maya, I can use split tools to add 2 vertices which will be connected by an edge that runs straight through any edge along the way. Does Modo has similar tools to this? Following DT tutorials it seems to be the Edge Slice tool, but that tool doesn't cut through other…
Nah, it's not that Modo is superior somehow, I was just confused that I somehow overlooked some cool features in Max. Modo definitely has a long way to go. Symmetry is better in Max and I like Cut tool better in Max than Edge slice in Modo.
Same here. But to add one thing that i like better in Modo over Max is working with the subdivided view of the mesh. In max that can be slow framerate wise and hard to see where to select edges and vertices so i switch a lot more back and forth to see what i'm doing.
If you want it to grid / slice through whole mesh I'd use Slice (Shift + C). Alternatively you can use use add loop, loop slice to do the same thing. If you want to cut through only the top faces, you'd select them before doing the above. There are also scripts (Seneca's, Etera's Swiss tools) that will connect two verts…
