3DsMAX bridge tool problem

[Tommel]

Hi everyone.

I'm just new here and also new to modelling. I'm just doing my first tutorial (the Beginner tut low poly spaceship from the video download section) and i just got my first question.

in this tutorial I just built a part of the wall of the spaceship and for the top he makes a new object. A cylinder->editable polygon->attach to the rest of the spaceship an connect the cylinder to the rest of the spaceship by using the bridge command.

But when I try this nothing happens. Bridge works when I try to bridge polygons in the part I created so far and as well in the cylinder, but it deosn't work if I try to connect these both parts.

Any idea? What have I forgotten to do?

Greetings Tommel

Have you attached the cylinder to spaceship?

[Tommel]

Of course I have attached it. Thats why I can't understand it. It's all one object, but impossible to connect...

Have you deleted the bottom face of the cylinder that would be touching the ship?

[Tommel]

no I haven't. This could be a possiblity. But in the video he doesn't do that either, or maybe he does it to fast to see it.
I went on in an other way but thank you. If I come to such a situation again i'll try this.

Thanks for your help!
