help please (meshsmooth problem)

[shyguy]

hiya ppl... i am in the middle of creating a nodel and i have finished the modelling... i then put a meshsmooth modifier on it... then i added valuse to the edge and vertex creases and weights... now i am trying to do the mapping... i used the unwrap madifier and started modifying... then i needed to use a cylindrical UVW modifier so below meshsmooth i chose the mesh select modifier to select the area that i wanted to use a cylindrical UVW modifier... the problem then occurs that i lose some of my crease settings...



why is that happening? should i be doing things in a different order?

at the moment that you select any polys all the above modifiers will work only on those selected polygons.
cut out mesh smooth and add it again after you;re done with everything.

or before you do uv work convert it all to one mesh object.
-but i wouldn't do that.
try to model and map so that you can apply meshsmooth after everything is done.
it's quiet anoying to select so many polys each time.
btw, use id groups for the polys.

good luck.
