[AXE] Murdericious 0 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 ok i need to make a cylinder for the gun i'm making, for the barrel. I got the "ngon" part, and i have it placed, but....its only a circle....nothing more. Theires no 2 front and back, no nothing. Can anyone help me to actually make a Cylinder rather than a blank circle? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SnowFella 8 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Just got to add a modifier called "extrude" to your Ngon mate...that will turn it from a 2d object into a 3d cylinder. From the sounds of it it might be a good idea to go though some modeling tutorials, ought to teach you the basics. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sleeper 0 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 You are posting in the wrong forum buddy. You can't make weapons, or anything for that matter for GR, using 3dsm v7. Try looking online for some 3d modellling forums if you are just trying to make a 3d gun. how do I make a cylinder Quote Link to post Share on other sites
element11 0 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Or you can model your things in max 7 and then send it to someone with max 3 4 or 5 and they can export it for you. So, yes, you can model in max 7. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zeko 33 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 R u sure u r making a weapon? Sorry but if u dont know what ngon is, then u might try with something easier like boxes and stuff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry but if u dont know what ngon is, then u might try with something easier like boxes and stuff. ← My first time in the 3dsm family was modeling a weapon. They're pretty easy, actually, I find, and a good way to start for simple objects. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
element11 0 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Same here. I found it quite easy to make a weapon model with boxes and lines. If you read black sabbeths tutorial in the recon section, its a good way to get to know your basic shapes and 3d objects, and operations like boolean and extrude.
