 How merge two objects
« Thread Started on Jun 27, 2010, 4:31pm »

In Sculpt mode is possible I put a new sphere in scene.
Ok, but, how I merge the two objects (the model and the new sphere), in my case, the eyes for example...

In Sculptris you can't really merge anything, but you can make it "as if"

If you have multiple object you can press CTRL+A to select them all, or click the symetry button, it will looks like they are parts of a single object, as you will not go from one to another if you click on the separated parts.

example :
originally separated

I press CTRL+A , all separated object are joined (not merged)
[image]

I can then sculpt on them like if they were a single object :

Then if i need to re-separate them, i press CTRL+D (it deselect every objects)
[image]

I then click on one of the object to select it and resume sculpting only on it
[image]

Merging really 2 or more object into 1 single mesh needs a modelling tool , by example the powerfull and open source Blender can do that with Boolean Operations.

I used this by example for a sculpted hand and a sculpted body that i merged in Blender with the boolean operations (takes a lot of time the more faces there is) :
[image]

After boolean and smoothed things with Blender, as you can see the junctions has some ugly topology on it :

Then cleaned the "junction" topology with Sculptris local Reduce Brush that worked extremely well in polishing the ugly zones.

You can also SHIFT click on multiple objects to get the same result, possibly allowing you to be more selective than the CTR+A (though I haven't tried the CTRL+A method).
