right-side upness of faces?

[Darkholme]

alright. my problem is this. I made a from-scratch shoulderpad for a unit (vertexmodify), it is shaped well, animates with the model well, etc, but which side is the outside is totally fucked up. some polys look one way others look another way. How can I change which side is the outside?

Make all materials TwoSided if I got the problem

 

[Darkholme]

that works, but I want a better solution.

hmm, twosided doubles rendering buffer, which is like dobling polies. Better, import(as static) the model's mesh to max using kmk's importer, select the faces, flip them; then export the model as [ur_modelname]_chunk.mdx, transform the chunk into .mdl and update the new triangle data of your model's geoset. That should do.

So until I figure out how to use max instead of doing my scratch modeling in vertmod I basically need to deal with twosided?

 

[BlinkBoy]

yep, but what I said is not even hard. I think it was the mere basics before.

I'll have to just try it them. see if I can figure it out (I don't know the ui of max, but if it's pretty basic I should be able to figure it out.)
