JH12 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Simple modelling question: How would you most efficiently cap the ring of this pipe that I have highlighted in yellow? Thanks for the advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipi Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 One way: I guess not the best if you want full proceduralism, because here I manually select the inner and outer edges to group them. But the main idea is the PolyBridge SOP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noobini Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 my guess is you're having problems with non matching pairs, without your geo, ppl would be just stabbing things in the dark...best to upload your geo, doesn't have to be the full super secret geo...clip it off and upload just the relevant part. would save me mocking up something that doesn't match yours 2tubes.hipnc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipi Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) Ah I didn't notice that there are different columns, but PolyBridge still works for me. Although in this case it produces both quads and tris, which you may not want to get. tube_cap_with_bridge.hiplc Edited June 15, 2021 by sipi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dweeble Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 I found converting the unshared edges to curves with labs edge group to curve and using a polyloft to be a super stable option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
