Spitfire tute Pt. 3 Boolean problems
Hi All!
Tried posting this thread yesterday but after spending half an hour getting my screenshots and typing done, half the state was blacked out with a power failure for 2 1/2 hours [1 second before I clicked "submit new thread"!].
Here's the problem I'm having:
When I use the Boolean Union function to connect the wing to the fuselage, the fuselage is removed instead of the intersecting geometry. I've tried nudging the wing a bit so the poly edges in the red circled area [see "Before" in image] aren't touching, but that had no effect [I'm historically a Lightwave user - nudging the geometry will usually fix a similar glitch with Lightwave's notoriously crap Boolean tools]. Does anyone know any ways of getting this to execute correctly? I don't think i'll have any problems manually doing the costruction, but I need to familiarise myself with Maya's toolset in the next 4 weeks for work!
Any help would be much appreciated! [A big CHEERS! to Kurt for the very cool tutes too!]
Cheers! priimate.
