DarkLimit Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 -Hi guys, -I have circled my problem in my pic, I copy and flipped half of my model and the model on the left shows the outcome which looks odd and nothing like the original half [ one on the right ]- -Any ideas?

John Bigboote Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Yup...odd. You could try the copy/flip operation again...OR- try grabbing the glitched CPs and moving them around a little bit...sometimes they SNAP back into place.

agep Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 You might have Mirror Mode active when doing the cfa? Just a shot in the dark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like you have another problem along the seam of your model between the left and right halves. Make sure before you do the C/F/A operation that center spline loop is sitting exactly on the y-axis from front view. The usual method for this is to: 1. go into front view, select all of the points that comprise this middle section. This should be a roughly vertical alignment of points. 2. activate the scale manipulator (hit S on the keyboard) and in the properties, adjust the X pivot location to 0 and the X scale to 0. 3. this will squash all of these points into a flat line directly on the y-axis from the front view and make your C/F/A ambitions a bit less irritating.

Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted February 26, 2009 Hash Fellow Share Posted February 26, 2009 A shaded wireframe of the above pic would tell us more. CFA can sometimes get confused by splines running very closely along side each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenH Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Did you alter the biases on any of the splines on the original side? I found they didn't CFA in one model recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenH Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Yeah that is true, but for me the bias tends to get inverted I probably should have said they didn't copy correctly. I'm not sure they were inverted because I had adjusted the bias to make a smooth surface on the original (don't ask ) but on the copied side it was warped. Also Darklimit, do you have any hooks in those areas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I adjusted them and it copies fine for the most part... -Thanks guys... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
