Hi everybody

i have a problem in Maya 8 Unlimited.....i've searched the forum...but didn't find an answer

I use the split poly tool on an polygon object...after pressing enter....i have 2 faces!
The original face....and another face, laying over the other. All along the edge i've made with the tool.

Did anybody know this problem??

i have seen that too, dont know what it is, I think its me. what I do is delete the face then merge the verts. then the extra face is gone and everything is joined as it should be, it annoys the hell out of me too

take it easy and life will be easy

Hi

no....no patch at highend3d....only the platinum members from autodesk are available to download patches at the moment, because the patches are in beta.
:headbang:

But it's possible to work with that.....it's only timeconsuming when you have a bigger polygon object with many splits in it, to become nice and sharp edges.
