Mayalicious polycounter lvl 8
I have an one sided mesh. When i import this into unity i can only see one side. It doesnt render two sided. Is there a two sided material that i can use? Thank you.

    Unless you need the whole model to be double-sided, it's much cheaper performance wise just to duplicate and invert the polygons you need double-sided.

    Like ZacD said it is better to duplicate the mesh and reverse the normals performance-wise. If you need it for things that are transparent such as hairs you could always use a Cutout Soft Edge Unlit material, they show on both sides.
    If you really need to get a 2 sided shader, there are some around on forums around the net or blogs, and on the wiki I think.

    here's one with different material color and specular for each side:
    http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Cg_Programming/Unity/Two-Sided_Surfaces

    If you need a transparent Soft Edge Unlit Double sided with shadows you can use that one, sorry I can't remember the source so I'll just past his/her code here:
    Shader "Transparent/Cutout/Soft Edge Lit Double Sided" {
    Properties {
    _Color ("Main Color", Color) = (1,1,1,1)
    _MainTex ("Base (RGB) Trans (A)", 2D) = "white" {}
    _Cutoff ("Alpha cutoff", Range(0,1)) = 0.5
    }

    SubShader {
    Tags {"Queue"="AlphaTest" "IgnoreProjector"="True" "RenderType"="TransparentCutout"}
    LOD 200
    Cull Off

    // render the semitransparent details.
    Pass {

    // Dont write to the depth buffer

    Tags { "LightMode" = "ForwardBase" }
