hey guys

a few years back i remember using a script to find ngons in a poly model. it would highlight the ngons in the poly selection level, so i could then adjust them as required. i think it was called something like "find bad poly" but cant seem to find it anywhere :(

do any of you guys know where to find it, or one simular?

cheers, dean

There's lots of them, this is an old one I did.

It's a macroscript so run it and find it in the "JHN's Tools" categorie and assign a shortcut to it.

Cheers,

It only works on editable poly baseobjects, I should have mentioned... maybe your using meshes or any other type of non editable base object? Maybe if you can and it's desireable collapse to ediable poly?
