I did a lowpoly model and exported into max, now the problem, "STL errors" Mostly just open edges,

in lightwave this is fixed with ONE BUTTON "m" which welds all points that are ontop of eachother,

now can MAX do this? without me having to painstakingly WELD each point by hand? is there a script/plugin?

Select all of the verts, then hit Weld, as long as your Threshold isn't too high/low - the ones that are on top of one another will be welded. :D

Hope this helps,

what should my threshhold be?

That partly depends on the scene scale. If the verts are right on top of each other a .001 or .01 will do the trick nicely.

If you want to see some vert madness crank it up to 10+. Instant optimize....kinda ;) hee-hee
