Boole isn't booling!

Hey there. I made an array of cylinders that I want to cut out part of this tower model. I set up the boolean the way everyone says, but when I unchecked the layer visibility, it didn’t cut anything out:

Don’t know what to do?? Can you not use booles with arrays? Or objects made from arrays??

please help!

thx

This should work… just double check… showing with expanded outliner may also give more hints in one image… like so:

Maybe also the boolean object with Viewport Display set to Wire could help to see thsi better…

Hello maybe share your file? (only the object and its boolean object)

Check for flipped normals (Viewport Overlays > Face Orientation).
If arrayed object is inside out, boolean will fail.

Yes, it works fine…
Did you set the scale?
Checked Normals?
Share the file…?

select the cutters and shift select the tower…
Use Bool-Tool? ( it works far better 80% of the time )

That was it! I flipped the normals and it was fine. Thank you!

Thank you so much! I flipped the normals and it worked.

thank you! turns out it was a normals issue

Thank you so much!

Glad you got it…also just in case you have this and you did check the normals …make sure that Scale is Applied or you will have similar problems…

Happy Blending!
