Flat Shade and Smooth Shade on Polygon
just a Simple polygonal Model i started from a Square.
Anywhoo. My Question is after Spliting and Extruding so meny times. when i switch from Flat Shade all to Smooth Shade all. Only Some areas of the model shade correctly the rest of it stays as if it was still in Flate Shade mode.
does anyone know what i did wrong?
how can i fix this error that i may have made?
and sorry if this Question has been asked already.. i havent found anything as of yet refering to the problem im having.
oh also note if i Smooth the Model the Flat shade and smooth shade works fine afterwords. i wish i knew what the heck i was missing.

That helped me out to. I had imported an object I created - a while ago in LightWave.
Same problem - I just thought it was an artifact of imported objects. Luckily I have been working on other things in the mean time and had not restrarted modeling, again in Maya.
