Scotty T Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 The attachment is a exterior residential I am experimenting with using Sketchup and Cad. I created the main structure in Sketchup and the siding and trim in Cad. I exported from Cad to max and I have some faces missing as I render using light tracer.No mods were added. Now i have exported many 3d models from cad to max and never had this problem so other than the siding and trim which are 3d solids I can see the Sketchup model being exported twice becoming a problem but this has me scratching my noggin cause its all of the model doing this.

chuck Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Scott- It's probably inverted faces in Sketchup. If you turn the "display shaded using all the same" style on it will show you what faced are backwards. By default the blue/purple is bad, tan is good.

Scotty T Posted October 5, 2007 Author Share Posted October 5, 2007 Thats what I thought but I made sure all was adjusted properly but did not help.Had something to do with being exported from Sketch to Cad to Max. Just have to export everything back to Sketchup and then to max. First project I have seen this happen. Ah well .... Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
