Simon Edmondson Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Having a spot of bother with patches going missing. I have prepared a street model for the new project using V15 Copied the model file and the chor over onto another machine using V17J to build up a town using the duplicator wizard When I open up the file in V17 alot of the patches go missing Previously I have modeled in V15 and imported into V17 without trouble. The warning message comes up, but there has never been a problem. This time there was no warning, but it did have a problem. Can anyone kindly suggest a solution ? simon Street Block 01.mdl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Edmondson Posted December 19, 2015 Author Share Posted December 19, 2015 David Thank you for your help. Much appreciated. I'm puzzled why they flipped in the copying and transfer . Not encountered that before? regards simon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuchur Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Have a look at you realtime settings. i'd say in v15 you have "show backfacing patches" on and in the other version it is off. See you *Fuchur* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
