Hey! Great tut. I need a little help though. Durring the part when you connect the dots to get the four squares in the row how did you make them pricely stick to each angle? Help would be great sorry if this is a newbie question i just started using Hex.

laughingnome · 20th February 2007, 11:51

you use the shift key to snap to points during facet creation Austin, thats why i created 2 circles, hope this helps

theres no audio Borg im sorry bout that ,i didnt have time, you can see what im doing in the command veiw however.

Thanks! I fully created the model great tutorial!

This was officialy my second model in Hex and I think I am getting a good understanding of the programm. Only one thing, after the model is done and we put the smoothing to 2 some of my models sides have gaps... It still looks really nice though! Thanks for the great tut!

i dont know about QTpro7, i use Camstudio3 by Techsmith

A3DLover · 2nd March 2007, 14:23

I had something like that but it made huge .fla files just for a few seconds (50 meg for 10 seconds)

laughingnome · 5th March 2007, 02:48

camstudios export to mov are quite small, a 3 minute movie with all the editing and callouts is only about 3 meg.

it's difficult for a beginner because you use custom shortcuts...too fast to see which tool you are using. thanks anyway. i'll try again when i know a bit more.

Gary_P · 12th July 2007, 00:17

I'd like to thank you for the Camtasia info. I had it and never thought about exporting in MOV format. Now I can do all my tutorials.

Seillean-dé · 16th January 2008, 07:44

Thanks for posting this tutorial. Although I had a bit of difficulty following it
(I am a complete beginner at modeling) I was able to achieve it in the end.

very cool, I was able to follow along with this and make a nice shield. I had fun.
