Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Maya 8.0 backfaces

Really easy one for you fellas, just familiarising myself with 8.0 (yes i know i'm way behind) though...currently the back half of any polygon objects are ghosted out, and i cannot select them in this staete, how do i get rid of this annoying 'feature'?

Hopefully that makes sense

go to the shading tab in the viewport and turn off "Backface Culling"

was already off, could it be any of these? Though there is no difference when I alter the options
