i made 4 boxes to create walls,then i created a box for the floor

How do i weld these together to make just 1 object so i can use the boolean tool to cut the nod/gdi doors thru it?

Attaching objects together doesn't weld or do anything else, the only thing it does is it "groups" them together.

If you want to attach objects, and weld them together and whatever, than it's Boolean Unite.

1. Select an Object.
2. Go to Boolean under Create.
3. Go down and click the "Union A+B" radio button
4. Click on "Pick Operand B"
5. Click on the object you want to unite it with.
6. De-Select the object
7. Follow steps 1-6 again with different objects (like if you want to Boolean Unite multiples of objects.

I really recommedn to use the attac function instead of boolean, because it mix up your texture and increases the polycount, if you only want to conect to objects, atrach is your choice Very Happy

He said he wanted it to weld them together when it attaches, Attach doesn't do that. Attach is best if you just want to group things together, it isn't if you want to actually attach objects together and make them look like they actually are one object.

thanks sir...and thanks laubi they both were helpful....but i wanted to make it so that it's just one object with no lines showing...therefore i needed to weld it....whats the weld tab for then if boolean does the job i need done?

I think it makes, that vertices that are very near are merged togeter to on.
After attach you can use also the 'Optimize' modifier.
