maya 09 exploding bevel

--tried the search but everything seemed normal map related


so I'm having a problem with the Bevel function in Maya '09, it only happens in the specific scene I'm working on (which is my tf2 polypack so I'm not about to start over) where any edge I try to bevel explodes. it was working perfectly fine yesterday but now, well I've attatched a pic below showing it in all it's glory. needless to say I've tried resetting the tool, and maya itself to default but it made no difference...



as you can see in the top half i've got some nice beveling, in the bottom i've got..... well you can see what I've got....

deleted history? That always causes problems for me.

Are all the normals conform ?

You could always try Export as OBJ -> New Scene -> Import

the history is still intact, but i've tried deleting it as well, and it's actually every object in the scene, even if i just go "create poly - cube" the same thing will happen.
as far as i can tell the normals are fine, there's no problems with the shading and when i show them they all stick out the right way, but again evena abrand new primative does the same thing.
just tried exporting an obj and just an mb but no diff.

arrgh!

So... borked bevel functionality in 2009? Then again, you said it was scene specific. Seems strange.

Share your scene? I can try on my end.

ScudzAlmighty

it's specific to the scene and models created in the scene, new scenes are fine
if you pm me your e-mail and I'll send it to you

ScudzAlmighty

ummm, it seems importing the entire scene into a new scene has fixed it.........
gotta love technology.

Well good riddance.
