Title: How to delete things from .obj scenes/ models Post by: Aliaz on October 28, 2011, 08:33:49 PM I'm not very familiar with 3DS MAX and I just need to know how to get rid of things in a .obj 3D scene. Some model rips have other things attached to it that I want to get rid of, but leaving the model where it is. (If there's a simple noob-friendly way to do this)
For example: Getting rid of a weapon, or background or platform attached to a model that I want to erase. Would be greatly appreciated 8) Title: Re: How to delete things from .obj scenes/ models Post by: Gamma Ridley on October 28, 2011, 08:46:56 PM Select it.
Click Delete. .... the end. Title: Re: How to delete things from .obj scenes/ models Post by: Aliaz on October 28, 2011, 09:00:08 PM Umm...how do I isolate the thing I want to delete?
It's attached to the model which causes the wrong thing to be selected. Keep in mind that I've only recently picked up 3DS Max...

I assumed that it was just a separate model you were trying to remove that wasn't attached to everything else.
I suppose you could try to edit the vertices. Select the polygon you want to edit, click on Modify (the blue rainbow thing near the top-right), select Vertices, and shrink the vertices down using the Scale tool. ... I'm pretty sure that would work.

This will allow you to select elements. Now select stuff and delete it.

(Literally my first time trying to do anything besides previewing models in it) Title: Re: How to delete things from .obj scenes/ models Post by: BlackJax96 on October 29, 2011, 11:34:33 AM Thanks!
