v9.3: Modeling question

[lexington1709]

Dennis Bailey's Version 1 Enterprise refit has a hole in the underside of the flight deck. The polygon is completely missing. How do I cover or restore it?

[BillS]

just select the points around where the hole is and hit p

[lexington1709]

OK. Just for my edification, what does that do?

[Irrational]

That makes a new polygon.

OK, got it to work after playing around with it. She looks really good now! Thanks much! :)

And if you want to assign it to an already existing surface group, you just go into polygon mode, select the polygon you've just created, and hit q then enter the name of the surface you want

[Matt]

Alternatively, you can just gain a few more posts and download his version 2 from the resources :)

I actually have that one but I can't put the Lexington's registry on that one... I don't know how to do it in Modeler. But I got the hole patched and fixed. :) I'll post a photo soon. :)

Here's a quick render I did of the Lexington in drydock, showing the patched area. Thanks to you all for the assistance!
