Pretty simple question, but something I really need to learn how to do...

Is there some way to merge points in cinema? like make 2 objects look like they're welded together? I've been told it can be done in lightwave, but I was wondering about cinema.

Any help please? btw im using r8

I would try using connect and then placeing the edges together and then using, optimise cranked up pretty high.

weld would also work but it really only works for 2 points at a time.

for a whole object this would be insane.

there's also the weld points command.

and the weld tools, and a number of other plugins as well to do this.

Check this thread I posted earlier today on a similar topic:

Your options are to Weld the points or use Structure > Optimise.

Best of luck!
