In this lesson we will take a look at the various polygon splitting tools that XSI has to offer.
Adding splits into the mesh lets us add more detail, because we have more points to move around. Experiment with the various splitting tools to find a solution that works best for you.
Topics covered in this video:
The Add Edge tool - splits edges and connects edges to vertices, vertices to vertices, and edges to edges.
The Knife tool - cuts straight into the geometry.
The Split Edge tool - splits edges and parallel edgeDirect Link to Tutorial: http://www.digitaltutors.com/digital_tutors/video.php?v=602
