1. Maya related: Why does my mesh turns black?

   

   Topic by Kyle_butler · Dec 2012 · Home› Technical Talk

   My file was just right. I saved it last night, and when I opened it today, the mesh was all black, as if the normals were off. I tried to reverse them, but nothing changes. The only way it worked was when I raised the subdivision levels (by pressing 3, on my keyboard). Is there any other way around that?

   Just future reference if that doesn't work then after unlocking Set to Face and then soften/harden where needed. Maya likes to do stuff like that.

   Your normals seem to be locked. Go to Normals -> Unlock Normals. That should do it.
