I've been wanting to get into vertexing, but often find I don't have the patience or time. So I thought about something.

What about the idea of pseudo-polygon porting?

What am I talking about?

Well, you take parts of many characters in 3DSMAX, then try patching the changes onto the character model your "porting them to" (preferably a character who is not part of the character parts you're "porting") another character.
For example, you make a 'frankenstein model" made up of Falco, Snake, and Bowser's hair, and try patching it onto Wolf, who has all the necessary features for your hack. How well would that work?

it wouldnt work

end...
 ive tried sumthing similar and the vertices dont match... so, it will give error and wont work

That whole patching thing only affects the vertex vectors, faces (and everything else) are left untouched.

How are you so sure since you haven't tried?

@VILE: Explain?

Well, maybe if the thing had the EXACT same number of verticies, connected in the exact same way.

In other words, completely improbable.

The patcher only affects vertex data, the face data is untouched. You would have to write your own program to import polygons, just wait for the model importer.

i HAVE tried it, i said it in the black text...
