Problem with Maya Smoothing


#1

Hello guys. I’m having a problem with smoothing in Maya when following a tutorial on YouTube.
I was following every step in the tutorial, and then I encountered this problem when smoothing the object. Is there something wrong with my settings?

This is my polygon before the smoothing:

My model after the smoothing looks really weird and different from the tutorial:

This is how it’s supposed to look like in the tutoril after smoothing:

Hi, it looks like you’ve got duplicate faces (faces on top of each other, sharing the same space)

Try going to vertex mode >> select all verts and use the Edit mesh menu >> merge verts

Unify Polygons should also fix the problem.
