Oh this is sooooo cool!! I've been looking for a decent MEL editor I've been bashing my brains out with the crappy MEL interface that's in 4.0. Why the heck did aliaswavefront not put a decent interface on the script editor?! It's so frustrating to use it!!! user added image

No problem guys!

And I TOTALY agree that he is a KILLER character modeler too!

To me, those wireframes look like a combo of polys and subd's because of the scattered few telltale Subd face-clusters, and the rare 5 sided poly.

Doesn't matter to me thogh, as I'll date EITHER ONE of them! hehe....

....man, I am a sad, sad creature....

Actually Tariqrf, even though at times nearly imposible to eliminate, 5-sided polys tend to pose a problem to render engines, which is why if you´re modelling with four-side polys, you should strive to eliminate them.

Remember, polys are triangulated when taken into account for render, and triangulating a 5-sided poly is probably going to leave a crease, or an artifact.
