Compliment?

[Ghost06]

Hi All

 

Ive just completed excercise 10 FW 190 Fighter, and although I have completed ok, there were a few things that didn't match what I was doing to what was stated in the book and on the video tutorial?

 

At a few stages it refers to going to the edit menu and selecting compliment group and compliment spline, but they are not listed under my edit menu. Im using version 13 (its the only one I have) and Im not sure if its called something different or it doesn't.

 

Any Ideas?

I'm not sure, but it might be referring to the comma/period/slash keys which allow you to select respectively.....

 

Similar spline

Other cps not selected

All cps in the attached mesh.

You might be right Ive just scrolled through the Giraffe section on the forum as it appears here too, which is where ive just started, and TeresaNord has experienced the same prob.

 

Apparently its now called invert selection? The book needs updating I think.

 

Im at work at the mo so Ill have a go later on.

 

Thanks Ken

Teresa is missing her opportunity here...

 

Ken is on the right track.

There are references to this in the excercise posting but they may be a little buried.

I probably should put that information in a more obvious place.

 

The term 'Compliment Spline' was changed to 'Invert Selection' a few years ago.

It's the same as the shortcut; period key.

 

Edit: Didn't see your last post. Looks like you tracked the change down.

I think Hash Inc just realized that people didn't understand what 'compliment' meant.

'Invert' is rather self explanatory.
