Chronos69 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 I am at work so i cant get an image so hopefully i can explain this easily enough. If you have 2 boxes side by side and then you use the hinge at edge (or whatever its called) tool, if you then end up with one box partly inside the other, can you then make the faces/polygons as one? otherwise they over lap each other. Or does this not matter? i am just thinking of later on in the model when i start to add materials and i am unsure if it will effect it or not? Hopefully people can understand this!!

Cad64 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 What was your idea? If you want to join two objects together you can use the "Boolean" Compound Object set to "Union". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Dave Right! Overlap surface of material will be visual problem when you render! You can combine together like what cad 64 said!You can convert editable poly or editable mesh and attach to each other! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
