• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

FS2004 gmax

One object at least has to be Editable Poly. Select that object and click Attach in the panel to the right of your screen, then click on the other object you want to join.

You now have one gmax object, but still need to weld vertices together. I'd suggest using Target Weld for this in vertex sub-object. See the help files for more details.
 
Hairyspin is correct. Use target weld, but remember, that in order to target weld the vertices, you cannot have any underlying polygons, meaning that if you weld two tubes together, you cannot have the end caps of the tubes where it is being welded.
 
..........or... just weld the needed Vertices together. Select two, click Weld, continue-repeat....


It is best to get the Vertices as close to each other as possible 'before' you Attach the other object to it and start welding. When you have the Vertices located on each other, aligned, then you can Attach the other object, then click on the row of Vertices to weld, and click on 'distance' and narrow it down to where it will only weld those Vertices close together, but not any others, and click Weld, and done.....
