Vertex's keep disappearing...

[MonteCristo]

Hey guys here,s an odd one, for some reason I can't see any verts in my stupid max file when I load a physique and go to vertex level. As you can imagine this makes assigning etc a bit tricky.

Any ideas?

vertex level of physique or the subobject level of the mesh physique is attached to.

sometimes this happens to me and usually if i just either collapse the stack or pop it off and convert the mesh to editable poly or mesh again it'll work fine.

of course if you're doing vert weights right now it could be a pain. i think though that you can save off your weights in both skin and physique, skin i'm sure of but physique, its been a while.

hope this helps

oh yeah also if it doesn't matter to use skin or physique there's a script out there to convert physique weights to skin and that way you can definitely save off the weights to reload. however if you've been workin with bulge angles and tendons i doubt that script to translate any of those. good luck dude.

Well I'll be a big fat ape! It worked, I collapsed and did a reset x-form fer the sake of it, and those pesky verts came back. Nice one Kuman. Cheers mate!

You know, you do look an awful lot like the world reknowned Rap Star Jay Z; it's uncanny.

awesome man, glad it worked out for ya

well you know people have mentioned how amazing it is that i'm chinese and still look just like jay z but besides that fact, we don't have a lot in common. i love his music but the only thing aside from our looks that we share is the idea that: the only wife of mine is a life of crime.
