| Milkshape 3D: Making a Tube |
| (1/2) > >> |
| 300spartan:
I've been screwing around in milkshape, and I know how models work (mind you) and I don't know how to make a tube. Do you have to make it manually, or is there a preset like the sphere for it? Or is it that I haven't explored MS3D for that much and need to screw around more? SOS. EDIT: Come on, 19 views, no replies? Come on. Am I that unpopular? |

Get a vertical cylinder, extrude both of it's top surfaces, scale these new faces down and make sure they're flat with the cylinder's surfaces, then extrude again and scale them on the y by 0.0000001 so they're flush flat in the centre, then delete the centre faces. You'll have a hollow tube. If you want a tube with a one-sided hollow, just extrude one top surface, scale it down and extrude downwards to the required depth. |

Use the torus shape, and extrude it. |
