3ds Max Modeling :: How To Connect Two Vertices

Jun 5, 2012

I was trying to connect the two vertices in my model. I tried connect and cut but nothing seems to work. I am attaching an image of the model in the attachments. The reason i want the vertices connected is want to fill the are thats not solid in the image. I tried the cap option for this after selecting the border but it does some wierd stuff. It doesn't fill the area uniformly.

3ds Max Modeling :: Connect Multiple Vertices Without Triangulation

Jun 19, 2012

I need a scatter distribution object like a railroad.

I draw a smooth line, then converted it to spline: using sub-object "spline", i used "Outline" to give it some width. Next step, it was converted to a Editable Poly.

At this moment, if i select its vertices and call "Connect", the result is a zig-zag sequence of edges, which are very difficult to clean-up. Another way, select each pair of vertices to apply connect is similar time consuming...

Maybe the picture aid to show the problem.

How to connect those verts like a railroad??? Or about how to create an appropriate scatter distribution object to this work?

Maya Modeling :: Aligning Vertices And Edges?

Oct 12, 2011

Is there some way to make the Scale Tool stop when multiple selected verts or edges are aligned, like in Max? I've noticed that you can overshoot when trying to align this way. I suppose there is always snapping to grid..

3ds Max Modeling :: Creating A Face From Vertices And Edges?

Jan 1, 2012

Is there a way to do this? After perusing some threads on creating edges from vertices, the "Create" tool under "Edit Geometry" doesn't seem to solve my issue. In Blender, you can create a face by selecting at least three vertices and pressing "F". Is there anything similar to that feature in 3DS Max?

I'm using the 2010 version.

Maya Modeling :: How To Select Two Edges Or Vertices

Jan 23, 2012

What I'd like to know is whether Maya can do accuracy.

For instance: Is it possible for me to select two edges or vertices and type in an exact distance that I would like to have between them.

Very fine accuracy is not required.

3ds Max :: Combining Vertices / Edges

Oct 27, 2011

I have attached a pic of the problem in question . I am new to 3ds Max and am following a tutorial on YouTube in order to model a car. As you can see in the picture I need to combine the two vertices circled in red and the edge lines which are highlighted yellow. I cannot figure out how to do this. In the video the guy just snaps the vertices together using the 'Snaps Toggle' tool and boom there is no gap between the polygons.

Maya Modeling :: How To Make Border Edges Out Of Edges

Jun 8, 2011

I'm trying to snap a head with it's neck with the merge edge tool, but somewhere along the way, the edges lost there border edge characteristics and now I can't merge the edges. Is there a way to make the edges back to the way they were?

Maya :: How To Create A Group Of Vertices Edges Or Faces

Jul 28, 2012

I was wondering if there is a way to create a group of vertices, edges or faces and somehow create a reference point or attach them to some kind of locator so they can be referenced at a later point. I want to be able to select a group of edges, model them and then move on to another task within Maya and have some kind of reference point so I can go back to the original group and not have to select them individually every time I want to work on that group of edges, faces or vertices, is this possible? I will post a picture shortly to this post so you can see an example of a specific group of edges that I would like to set a reference point or locator for.

Maya Modeling :: Can't Make Vertices Go Away

Feb 17, 2012

Maya 12 Hotfix 2, MacOS 10.6.8

When I am selecting objects, even in object mode I am getting this onslaught of bright yellow vertices, as though I had vertices selected in preferences or hotkeys... but I don't. All that stuff is off in my preferences. I can't seem to make it go away. Can't see faces for all the vertices cluttering up the view. Happening in all the panels.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sketch Orientation / Can't Dimension To Any Existing Vertices Or Edges

Feb 16, 2009

Why the heck does Inventor arbitrarily orient sketches as it sees fit? I often create my first sketch on the right (YZ) plane and Inventor, stupidly turns the sketch where "RIGHT" in the viewcube reads from top to bottom.

I know all the things to do to AFTER this happens, but it shouldn't happen in the first place. If I turn my sketch so that up is up, like it should be, I then have to remember that vertical is horizontal, which is now vertical. I can't change the sketch coordinate system. It's the first sketch and there is nothing to align it to.

How to prevent the above example from occurring in the first place.

This, and the fact that I can't dimension to any existing vertices or edges without projecting them first, really make me hate using Inventor sometimes. To me, these are huge problems, neither of which Solidworks has. At worst, both of these behaviors should be configurable.

3ds Max Modeling :: Create A Polygon From Selected Vertices

Aug 28, 2011

I used to use lightwave. With lightwave I could select vertices and then press the "P" key to create a polygon from the selected verts.Now, with max I have found the "create" feature. When using an editable poly, in poly select mode, I select the "create" button and this allows me to do 2 things:

1 - I can create a poly out of nothing by clicking empty space

2 - all verts from existing objects become visible and I select the verts I want to create a new poly.

These seem like really cool tools, if it wasn't for one small detail..With "#2" if I engage the create button, and select a vert - I can no longer rotate around the object and look at it from different angles (by pressing alt+center mouse) UNTIL AFTER I have created the new polygon.

This small detail is kind of annoying because with certain intricate models, I may need to move it around to get to the next vert in line. The only way for it to work, it to make sure I can clearly see ALL verts needed for the new poly with no other geometry or objects obscuring them before starting the create button.

Is it not possible to simply go into "vert selection mode" select a collection of verts (in doing so, be able to rotate around the object between making the selections) and then after I have made my selections simply click a button or key to create a new polygon from the selection?

3ds Max Modeling :: Moving Vertices Manually With Cloth?

Jul 18, 2011

I have difficulties using Cloth : Some years ago I had less problems with Cloth but my characters were much taller than real characters, 2 or 3 meters high for example. Now, I have decided to use realistic sizes for my characters, hoping it would improve the result with Cloth, but it is the contrary. With my new characters, 1 unit = 1 centimeter and it is almost impossible to have a perfect result. I was wondering if it is possible to move manually some vertices within Cloth after the simulations for correcting the inaccuracies.

Maya Modeling :: Why Are Vertices Around Selection Orange

Oct 19, 2011

I noticed that when a face is selected, vertices and edges in the near vicinity glow orange, and are affected when the primary selection is translated/rotated. Is there a way to modify only the primary selection without any secondary effects?

I know in other 3D modeling software it is possible to transform individual faces without deforming the surrounding geometry. Is there a setting that I need to change?

Maya Modeling :: Create New Face Between Vertices

Nov 20, 2010

I worked for some time with the free program blender to create my scenes and objects. Because I want to study the subject 'Technical Directing' I started learning how to work with Maya, the more "professional" software.

Although I read through the considered topic of the GettingStarted tutorial, I've still a question to you:

How can I create a face between already existing vertices? This would really improve my workflow.

Maya Modeling :: Scaling Vertices Uniformly?

Mar 7, 2013

Is there any other method for scaling an object in it's position using the vertices?

For example if you modeled wires or cables or bars and deleted the history but now you think they are too thick or too thin and you want to scale down without compromising their positions.

Look how I found 2 solutions, the cluster option takes more time.

I could not make a single cable on a floor thin out uniformly with the scale tool option. It did work with cluster on each bend but is a bit tedious.

Maya Modeling :: 2013 Is Not Selecting All Vertices?

Aug 17, 2012

lets say I marquee select the vertices on a cube in an orthographic view (top view or side view) only the vertices facing the camera get selected. And to clarify, CAMERA BASED SELECTION IS TURNED OFF. Also, not sure if it is related, but backface culling in preferences is also turned off. This usually will not happen in perspective view; but yesterday it did start happening in perspective view as well. And even more strange, it does not affect all meshes in the scene. Only some will react this way.

This bug only recently started happening and it is driving me nuts. I have been running 2013 on this machine since it was released, but not until recently did this bug start to occur; so I am wondering if I accidentally turned something on/off?

3ds Max Modeling :: How To Extrude From A Face Without Selecting All Vertices

Feb 1, 2012

possible to extrude a face from selecting all the vertices that make up the face. If you just extrude the vertices the effect is undesired. and when you select all the vertices, hold ctrl, and switch to face selection it selects all the adjacent faces, not just the ones that are actually formed by the selected vertices.

Basically I would like this To turn into this on Ctrl+4

I remember seeing some one do it in a older version of Max, I'm on 2011 right now, is it possible?

Maya Modeling :: Selecting Vertices In The Back?

Mar 5, 2011

I'm having a huge problem trying to select the vertices both in the front and the back of my object. I am familiar with backface culling, and the option is not working. I have tried toggling backface culling in the viewport, preferences, mesh component display and polygon display options. None of these options work. I want to be able to select all the vertices on a model, regardless of certain objects/faces being in the way. However, if there is a face in front of the vertice I am trying to select, Maya won't let me select it.

I am working in meters.

I can not seem to select vertices that are "farther" from the camera.

If I scale the object down - I can start selecting multiple verts again.

Maya Modeling :: Function To Set Vertices Of Plane Equidistant From One Another

Jun 9, 2012

I'm working with a polygon plane and I've moved the vertices on the edges to where I want them. Now I want to set all the non-edge (interior?) vertices equal distance apart from one another. Is there a function or an easier way to do this or do I have to do it manually?
