  • I keep trying to use target weld to make my edge loops whole again but regardless of how much I do I keep finding new loops that won’t completely select I’ve tried watching videos on how to get it to work but I’m still finding them only selecting sometimes as few as 3 edges is there a go to tool to resolve this? If not I’ll tjust keep playing with it and accept  that i just need to toil with it.

Hi!

 

I would need to see it myself to tell you what exactly to do, since "making edgeloops whole again" is a pretty vague description of what you are trying to do.

 

But I assume that you have endgeloops with overlapping edges that aren't merged. This would be my workflow for this:

 

The first thing is to display all the edges that aren't connected (Display -> Polygons -> Border Edges), This will display the edges that aren't connected as Bold

 

You then can select all the edges around a hole by doubleclicking on one of them.

 

Then you use the Merge Borderedges tool (Shift + RMB -> Merge/Collapse Edgens -> Merge Boderedges), you need to play with the tolerance a bit.

 

Repeat this workflow until there are no bold edges left.

 

I hope it helps!
