Hi

I have a problem with gmax.

I made a floor for a building. In this floor i had to make
some holes. Did it met subtraction a-b. But it wil not close
the sides of the hole. Now its just like i look between the
bottom and the top of the mesh (not solid). Can anyone tell me how to solve this.

Thx

Rene

i think he means he made holes in the floor using "a-b" (what ever that means), but either:

1: the floor dissapeared, but you can walk on it
2: The floor is visable, but you go through it
3: all of the above

If you have the problem that MGamer is talking about then i have the solution for you.

rightclick the mesh (after using boolean tool) and convert to 'editable poly' then play around with the polygons on where you want to have them (if you want more polygons then do bolean again to create more)

When you think your done choose 'element' selection. (the red box)

then in 'Edit Geometry' rollout click 'create' click on the polygons which you want to connect to each other to create a new surface.

Here a sample, I used boleans 2 times. (not detailed) thats the way i should do it.

1 more tip. If you get black spots on your mesh, select your mesh and go to modifier tab and click on 'smooth' that should fix it Smile

Thx all for your replies. I will try it.

The problem was something like Mgamer said. If I have a box like 2cm high. And I use boolean I did look between de bottomand the top of the box.

When I restarted the map (filesize problems) and I dont use texture then the problem is also gone. Is your answer also the answer for textured meshes.

I am sorry didnt any screenshots here. Next time I will

@Di3hard: I try it later. Maybe its easier and better the the way I use now :)Its bed time now Smile
