Modelling Question...
« on: August 21, 2003, 12:26:29 pm »
I have a question for you modellers out there...  I'm trying to model half of an object then mirror it and join the two pieces.  When I do,  there is a very obvious line along the joint.  How do I prevent/correct this??  I'm using MAX.  Any help appreciated.

Thanks
Scott

Situate the two halves so that they just BARELY touch, then attach one to the other making them one object, then switch views to see the vertices. Go to the Weld panel and set the radius to like 0.01 and select all the verts on the model. Click SELECTED and it will weld all the verts that are really close together (ie: your two halves where they barely touch).


EDIT:

Whew! my spelling STUNK!

Thanks Capt.   I'll give that a try.  Hopefully I'll work out some web space and be able to show some pics of what I'm working on.

Thanks
