I know.

We've a new pack installed that are normal.

Along with the new SU icons.

Just need to set them up.

Live and learn.

No worries, I can live with them.

Wow. That is an expensive fix.

Damn these new smilies are really, really ugly...

I've been using path select tool since I had it and it's really different, you have to manually select your path there while here the plugin seems to find this in an automatic fashion.

Have you already tried with a double click?
Don't know how this one works though.

Select it-->right click-->unglue.

This plugin is not working for the MAKE version ?

Here you can download the first one in .3ds format:

And here you have the second model:

I guess you can download the .ply version (the other one is .max) and then convert it to .OBJ or .3ds.

hi how to fix the problem with thrupaint. its says more than 4 edges.

Most probably you've tried to apply a texture on surfaces which have more than 4 edges using the "Quadmesh UV" method. Try again by choosing a different method.

When this sort of problem happens to me I use "generate faces" from context menu (I have a shortcut for it), selecting all lines and that makes every face deleteable again. The thing is you have to do that and you shouldn't. I can't believe the pissed I'd to have to redo that to my faces everytime I'd load a model.

Must be a plugin (or extension, whatever) I can't find it anywhere within SU 2015.

"Generate faces" is an item added in the context menu by Fredo's "Tools on surface" plugin.

Fantastic. Love them.

If you mean painting both front and back faces at once then

Any direction from you all would be appreciated.

How about something like this? Just a quick try.

First I have smoothed the edges in each sector then I've used ThruPaint with "natural UV" feature.

roof.skp

Unzip the folder, then put the .RB file & the folder (exactly like you see in the image) in the plugins folder.

Tried it quite quickly, but it seems to work like a charm in SU 2014.

Have a look at this video to understand how layers work in SU.

Raw geometry means everything not in a group or component.

This one?

Did a quick search with google.

Hello. Can anyone point out why I can't push/pull the highlighted face here?

The reason has been explained. You can also try to use push/pull while holding "ctrl" down in these cases.
