Unfixable consistancy errors?
2008-08-05, 1:25 PM #1
I've got a wierd surface error. Seems it's not where it should have ended up when I cleaved it. I can't drag it where it needs to be because the surface it should be next to is angled, and vertices mode doesn't do the trick either.

Short of completely scrapping most of the project (its a pretty crucial part of the center of this room), is there a way to redo it or fix it?

I'll have to post it tonight if I remember, I'm still at work. I'll try to get a shot of the effected area as well.

The error thats highlighted is the one thats on the grid. Hopefully, I won't be asking how to fix the others later.

Basically, you get this error anytime that a surface has more then 3 verticies and at least 1 of them is not on the same plane with the others.

Notice that this surface has 5 verticies. Cleave it so that it becomes two surfaces with 3 verticies each. My suggestion is cleaving it where the vertex near the center on the left hand side is. Cleave from there straight across. That's the best suggestion I can give based off this one angle. It would help to be able to see this in 3D and with all of the verticies of this surface highlighted.

I could post up the jkl, possibly revealing my *ambitious* project.
