Use the boolean tool. Make the object that u want to make a hole\tunnel through (Object #1), then make another object that goes through the object that you want to boolean (Object #2). The object #2 will make a cutout of object #1. To do this: Press "Y" to bring up the toolbar. Select object #1. Then click the compounds tab and click the little box that has all the holes in it called "Boolean". Then click "Pick Operand B" and then click object #2. This will make the tunnel! If you have any other questions or if your confused, e-mail me at Maytridy@rochester.rr.com

I can't texture my objects after using the boolean tool. What am I supposed to do?

an alternative method is to flip the ploygons. Start by making a box. Extrude it a few times and model into the shape of the tunnel. Then select all the polygons involved and 'flip' them. The flip button near the bottom of the editable mesh rollout. The only problem is that its hard to see the shape of the tunnel as the polygons can only be seen from one side. To solve this right click on were it says the name of the viewport your in and go to configure. In the viewport rendering options check the box called 'force 2-sided' . This will not affect w3d properties just the way you view in renx.
