Chris Potts Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 Few month ago, I did been done make model building then put whole each object into one group and then Add on FFD 2x2x2 on Modifier list...because I use it strech/bendy/twist 3d Building fit into photo background that picture was fish len (im not happy about it because it was look bend angle picutre) Until now, Client change mind about design on window layout, So I keep all 3D building excatly same as before expect remove part of window and re design new window. Problem is I can't get new window attrach into Building that already in group with FFD on it...and It cant same match to bendy/twist as before.... .I dont want delete FFD on Modifier list and re again add on it...it will all lost position where I need match same as before... also I did try copy and paste on Modifier...it wont work or not same match to it.... Sorry Im poor english and not good explaintion.....I hope you understand follow this what I trying saying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Denby Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 Chris Can't you simply turn off the FFD Modifier whilst you make the changes, and then turn it back on again. Alternatively, right click on it in the Modifier list and 'copy'. Then delete the FFD, make your changes and then 'paste' it back in. Martin I haven't a clue what you mean. Could you explain it another way please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iain Denby Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 Martin, surely you can just copy the FFD modifier from the cube (at top level) and 'paste instance' it onto the sphere. Or, select them both and apply a FFD (this automatically applies an instance to both). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Potts Posted July 1, 2005 Author Share Posted July 1, 2005 To Dibbers, I did try this before..It cannot 'paste' on modifier list on new object...Also Ive tried add on 'Edit mesh' and then 'paste' on top of modifier list...It went crazy messy different any direction from exisiting model... To The Digital Dabbler, Thank for clear explaintion on picture....Hang on, I feel silly as I trying find out where 'Sub-Object level' on Modifier that seem dont have one on list.....Mine currently Viz 4 - perhap it is old verson Yeah, finally cooler in Yorker.....Some day, would you like meet me somewhere in town next week...if you like.

Chris Potts Posted July 1, 2005 Author Share Posted July 1, 2005 Sorry Ive tried work out with FFD...It wont work....I think reason is too many group each model ie window group, wall group, roof group etc...into one final group...Maybe I was wrong... Only way, I did copy existing model and keep it (as Model B) and Existing model A already remove FFD 2x2x2 from Modifier list and then new object attrach into model A. Then Add FFD 2x2x2 into this and trace match into Model B to make almost perfect match. Finally, I delete Model B off....keep Model A that is all I had do.... Im in hurry to finish this project done need today.. I will practise solve this problem over this week.. So Cheer Thank you help with me....Maybe I will post up final render picture next Monday if I can... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Denby Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 Martin. Yep, I see what you mean. Anyway Chris, you should camera match better so you don't need to distort your whole model this way ! ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Potts Posted July 4, 2005 Author Share Posted July 4, 2005 See Picture attractment below..... Erm I know how look FFD look worse...but on fit into Photo background look okay.. Any comment ?? To Dibbers - To be truth, I really hate Camera match point. It never give perfect match....due to two or more picture stich up together that wont work on camera match.....Sorry... To The Digital Dabbler - That excatly, I got problem with that. Cheer thank...Im still trying figure it out... Cheer thank from Chris Potts..

Iain Denby Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 Chris WOW... I have never seen or heard of matching to a a photo this way ! That is drastic, and not something I would EVER do! The camera match facility in Viz is useless (IMO) do it manually. You are fighting a loosing battle trying to match a stitched photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvlive Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 whoa! that's one odd way of doin it. not saying that its wrong, but as dibbers said, not something i would ever do.... but that idea opens windows for me... might come useful someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
