tonybonneyba Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 Now...... How do i add the windscreen windows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scahalane Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Now...... How do i add the windscreen windows? I haven't used Blender before I'm a 3ds max user myself, but if its similar there should be an inset command in polygon mode that will allow you to inset a window shape. Try looking for an polygon inset tutorial for it on youtube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liverbird81 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Then what scale are you doing the plans for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UP6936 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Liverbird, I think what Tony means is that he is doing a CAD model for computer usage as opposed to a physical model, for which he gave OO/N as well known examples, as such it wouldn't be to a 'scale' per se Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garfield Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 There may have to be an Inquisition about this comment.. Like this? Back on topic... interested to see how this works out. Could be a good basis for a class 80 in a train sim like Railworks or BVE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warbonnet Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) Well you did buy D&M curtin side wagons off us ??,and you say you can't find my work input ,just scrol down to manufacture's look under D&M models and you will see my work there along with David,plenty of people have seen my work on there layouts. Last time you had a pop at another manufacturer on here I was told that you were nothing to do with the modelling manufacturing part of that and that was down to David. So which is it? Is that really the best you can come up with? Yes, I did buy them, and it's all I have bought to be honest for my own reasons. Anyway, you've dragged this way off topic once again. It has also been decided by the mod team that you should have a week off after your earlier attack on junior members of the site in your previous posts on this topic. See you next Friday.

Left me cold Usually personals would take a cold shower to cool off / calm down, so, I'm only guessing that they have asked you to tell them to take a cold shower to calm down......, only a guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murrayec Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Hi Tony Isn't the English language a funny old business!! Boolean operation your looking for;- Invented by Mr 'Fred' Boolean for 3d solid modelling- adding 3d solids together, subtracting one 3d object from others where they intersect, and creating an object from the intersections of 3d objects!! A way to do doing this is to draw a polygon for the window ope and make it a solid with a thickness greater than the front wall and intersecting it, then use the window ope object to cut-out or subtract it from the front. That is the English version, now you have to find how your software does it. Once you have mastered one window ope- your away, and you will find this operation can be done on multi objects at one time- draw all the windows and then subtract in one go. Only joking about the 'Fred' bit- don't know the mans first name but he was pretty good at maths Eoin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
