Modular House Convert To Mesh issue

[LeifW]

Hi,

I’m going through the Blender environmental artist course. I’m about 78% complete. I’m currently on the video “Organise & Build a House”. I’m at about the 55 second mark in the video where you convert the bay window area to a mesh. When I do the conversion, all the details on the wall modulars disappear. I’ve attached before and after screen shots as well as a YouTube video link so you can see the issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It looks strange.

I didn’t do the course, but I find the step convert “Curve from mesh/text” very strange.

Meaning you want to convert a mesh (like a face with four sides) into a curve (a line ), then there are no faces anymore …

Also you’re using Blender 2.83, which is old. Check the version the teachers is using, because a lot of functions are renamed, relabeled, and different menu. etc.

2.8 was the start of a new Blender UI, and since then a lot of changes in behavior.

You can install multiple versions of Blender ! Old ones 2.83 and new ones 3.2.1
