BUT the tool is totally messed up in my case. It never really snaps to vertices and doesnt cut anything neither, especially when working in the 2D…
Hi polycount. I'm using 3ds max 2017 for modelling. I was working on a low poly pistol model.

Hi, I'm working on a project that would require a transparent background behind my main element, as it will be animated over several hundred of frames and placed on a different background later on. Manually cutting each frame in Photoshop doesn't seem very appealing to me! Is there any way of achieving this? I'm using 2017…
