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.

Attach Surfaces --> Surfaces suddenly disappear !!!!!!
I have two independent surfaces.
1st: was build with a normal loft from two ep-curves
2nd: was build with birail 2
If I want to attach the surfaces, the surfaces disappear - yeah, both surfaces suddenly disappear.
hmm, have no clue what is wrong.
I´ve tried to delete the history from both surfaces, but there was no difference. Both surfaces disappear after attaching.
What can I do ?
thx for every littel help,
bernhard

maybe try ( if you havn't already) and delete the curves that you lofted together- If you keep those alive they can sometimes cause problems like yours.
hope I helped

Check your surface normals
and
Make sure they can be attached successfully.
By that last thing I mean if one surface has only a certain number of spans etc, and the other has more or less, there could be issues like you are having.
Mike has a great tutorial regarding attaching/stitching sufaces like this in the VIP section called "Arm Stitching", so you might wanna check it out
Otherwise, a text version is at his site as well.
I believe his tutorial site is in our tutorial links database page, so check there first
