Boolean Modifier doesn't work when I apply other objects to cut Bishop

[Zhenyang_Cai]

Hi!

I met a problem with Boolean Modifier, When I followed the tutorial video and used a cube to cut the Bishop, it works very well, but When I tried to use my own object to cut the Bishop, I set the operation to “Difference” but nothing changed.

Thanks!

I had the same problem with a UV sphere. I only got it to work with a cube, or a taurus. There may be other shapes that work, but the UV gave me problems after I shaped it.

After you apply the modifier, which should be attached to the bishop and not the new object/shape, you have to hide or delete the object.

I ended up having troubles with Boolean also. The modifier created lines on the mesh that I used to manually model the hole.
