I'm just playing with a simple building that ships with Vue5 and was wondering how could I remove say one or two of the walls and join them together to make a long hall with windows. Obviously at the moment I can pop several buildings together but when I venture inside the walls get in the way of a view down the long hall so I thought, I know, I'll remove a couple of walls! But I'm stumped now.

Can you tell us which building you try to access? So that we can look at it as well. If it is not grouped but one object i don't see a chance really. Only if these walls have a separate material. Then you can split the object in it's model parts by materials. If you have the walls separated you of course can simply delete them. What you can try as well is to make the wall material of the original building completely transparent. Then they are gone too. You then have to add some extra walls. Maybe that is easier.

Yep, it was building 5 in the collection I was using and it's made up on three materials, the roof, the walls and the window. I see now! I can select the roof, the window but all the walls are one!! Damn! Best bet then is to build a new one. Thanks

Maybe a boolean substraction could cut a hole in any place of the wall ? just my two cents.

Suggest you obtain some of the excellent free castles by Luca Rodolfi - they are in seperate pieces, so you can copy & paste a wall, or an arch for example. As a bonus, you also get the superb textures that he uses!!!

Thanks for that LW I'm onto it.

I'm with Polax on this one, though Luca Rodolfi's models are stunning:) I would create the line of buildings I needed, group them, then place a cube inside and use a "boolean substraction" to remove the ofending wall/walls:)

Thanks, I've dl'd the buildings. I'll give it a crack tonight. Appriciate your comments.
