Hi all!
I've been trying to play around with the free 3dfestival/cg talk models, and every time I scale them up then freeze their transformations they go all blackish! I'm thinking maybe its something to do with shader groups?
Nonetheless it highlights my maya inexperience.. any one have any ideas?

cheers

under polygons > normals > set to face

it's a little early to be thinking too hard, so i cant remember when and why this happens... but i believe that was the solution for it.

set to face will work as was stated above, but only momentarily as it doesn't actually fix the normals. If you set to face then, for example, if you try to smooth your normals (or make an edge hard via normals), nothing will happen.

to really fix this you need to unlock your normals. (check the box and hit apply)
