Strange lines in groupobjects

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.

Thats odd, only thing I can think of is that you may have some geometry in smooth preview mode, select them and hit 1 on the keyboard. /shrug

Looks to me like you have a duplicated set that have been turned into nurbs/Subd's/smooth preview. Try selecting them and deleting them, or like GecT said, selecting all and then hitting 1 on the numpad.
