Well, you learn things the hard way and are better for it...because if your life was a smooth ride...you don't learn a damn thing...I guess this gives me the chance to organize the geometry more...

I can't believe the geometry just up and disappeared because of tools I used.

Thanks a ton.

That is old geometry I am not using. The ship was almost done...with the display layer used for that geometry on or off...it...

There's nothing there to screenshot except the display layer...but yeah.

Thank you all very much. I will test it and edit the post once I execute your advice. I know I saw something about applying the default material somewhere...but it seems irrational because it does...

I was working on my project...I tried to bridge edges or something, I noticed it created a hole. I tried to undo the action...the hole was still present. I redid and the hole remained. Then I saved...

Okay, thanks I will try...I think I have tried to use bridge before...maybe not correctly.

It worked...now I need to fill that gap.

P.S. Need help on that too. Fill Holes does not work.

If two parts of a mesh are not connected...such as this:
