      Hi,

      I have a dilema, I am modelling a complex landscape and have thousands of random shapes which I have generated the faces on, but I need to delete the internal faces to make holes.

      Lets imagine theres 1000 different shaped doughnuts with the hole in, except the hole is a face, how can I select/delete these faces, is there an extension anyone knows of that can delete islands? (I haven't found any)

      Thanks!

        Post an image or a model to get a more complete answer.

          I've changed my method, now using the Bitmap to Mesh plugin from ThomThom.
          One word. Amazing.

          Saves me a lot of hassle in illustrator, live tracing etc... or installing Maya for displacement map.
