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.

imported OBJ
assigned a new shader - nothing. another geometry in this scene is shaded correctly in the viewport. the imported one has no odd connections in the hypergraph. looks just any "normal" object. no matter what I do, viewport doesn´t shade the object correctly anymore..
what has happened?
everything starts and ends in the right place at the right time.

use set to face and conform to sort them out (look in the polygons menus)

I guess you are right - it was something with normals. can´t tell exactly what. I mirrored the half geo - polyUnite - merged verts. this gave a very strange shading of geo like turning normals to superhard, but only the fliped side. after converting to subDiv and back to poly everthing is finde now. phew!
