3D text help

bdkhoops · 11th August 2006, 06:12 PM

I want to make 3D text look like it is carved into an object. I would normally make the text and then use a boolean operation to subtract it from another object but boolean features never work well for me. I tried it and AC3D crashes everytime. Is there another way? If not, maybe that would be a good enhancement to the create 3D text tool. To make a surface with the words etched in.
