Again preferences but modeling - Selecting poly faces by just selecting the face rarther than the center of the face, also adjusting border edge thickness.

also the differing ways you can select verts edges etc using the arrow keys to do loops and such, as well as paint selection and backface culling.

On the vid, I would say that going in and switching on all the plug ins is a bit unnecessary, maybe if you want to keep it in there but theres no real need for it and it slows up boot up time on slower comps, and can load up a few things that you'll probably not use.

Hope its some help

I'll definitely put in the Interactive Creation, and most of that stuff for the preferences. I have a couple of questions on some of the things though. I can't seem to find the play every frame for dynamic sim's and how to toggle between play every frame free or max realtime.

The more that I think about it, I think that a separate video for setting up the prefs might be necessary, since there's so many things to tweak in there. How does that sound?

Yeah, I guess turning all of the plug-ins on is unnecessary, I just prefer to have them checked on just incase. user added image

I've also started writing up some stuff for another tut for more experienced users, but I need to get the FAQ out first before I start working more on the new one.

Thanks a lot for the help, Steve.
