<div class="IPBDescription">Using MS3D</div> I need to know how to make a ring shape, like a doughnut, using milkshape. All the tutorials don't discuss how to do this and i really need to know how to make one! Thanks in advance.
P.S. I know how to make a ring with the cylinder using the "close cylinder" option but it's not really 3d. I need to know how to make a 3d ring.

    It's easy.

    1) Make a cylinder one stack high.
    2) Make another smaller cylidner inside the other one. Same height.
    3) Delete the centre vertex on both.
    4) Fill in the missing faces.


    If you want one with round edges, then that's just going to take more work.

    Get Gmax.
    Use the TORUS tool.

    Seriously, Jamil's got it right. But it's difficult to make a ring with more then 4 sides in MS3D.
