Agreed. The only other method would be to convert your object to an editable poly and bridge the selected polys for your door way, but that may not work if you need the bottom open. Bridging is best for making clean holes and works best if your going to use a smoothing modifier.

Hey guys,

Thanks for the tips so far. Basically, I just need a big enough hole for it to look right when a camera goes through the doorway and then pans across to a photo frame on the wall.

I'm thinking of doing the window a different way now since it does not need to animate - just add a rectangle and add a texture of a window frame to it.

Thanks again for the suggestions so far. I'm sure it will help me with future projects too .

Andrew.
