Rounded cone in 3ds max 9
Yo guys, just wondering if anyone knows what kind of modifier or object id need to use to make a rounded cone (ie nose of a bomb)? Thanks for the help in advance!

Re: Rounded cone in 3ds max 9
I actually meant a topic for the thing you where modelling where you could ask the question in but this works too but wouldn't make a topic for a simple problem, complex ones ye 
But anyways the simplest way to make a cone from a cylinder, is just to collapse the end face like so:
Then its just a matter of moving and scaling the edges behind it down behind it to make the cone shape you want:
Then for optimization purposes you should look at collapsing every other face near the end so the edge size is around the same for the rest of the model:
