3ds max 2014 - Bridge Tool problem.
Hi guys, at the moment I'm training 3D modeling using 3ds max with the help of the video series called "Mastering Hard Surface" by Grant Warwick. I'm not only watching those videos, but I recreate the shapes he makes and sometimes add personal details. But I'm facing a problem with the bridge tool that is not new for me:… -

When in the border subobject level, don't select anything, click the bridge button and click the first edge an the opposite edge - you can pick any two edges to guide the bridging process. -

The Bridge tool while in border mode, has a twist input, two actually. Bridge in border mode often gets the triangulation right where the edge mode version typically gets it wrong and has less options to correct the problem. -

Select those edges in Border selection (3) not in edge selection (2) and then use Bridge tool. Works for me every time. -
