Cleanup Mesh and NMG

Cleanup Mesh and NMG

Anonymous
Not applicable

I am attempting to load a Maya file into Mudbox and I've already ran Cleanup on it. There are no non-manifold errors when I run Cleanup and have the select option checked. However, when I try to load the file into Mudbox, there are two non-manifold errors(T-shape and vertex splice).

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

My theory is that I constructed the mesh in an improper way by using methods that would create NMG. But I am not sure why the NMG wouldn't be selected when I run Cleanup on the mesh.

 

I've attached the file if anyone can take a look.

 

Thanks,

 

Ben

Hi!

 

"To detect such Problems use Mesh Component Display -> Display Borders."

"In short: re-create one of the adjacent faces of the corrupted edge and the Problem is solved:"

Thank you,

 

I tried searching the forums earlier and didn't know I'd find the issue with a different name.

 

Thanks again!
