Arggggghhhhhhh!

I'm trying to help some students with some animation work at their school and I cannot get locate or create a "double sided" button in modeler interface. The only way to 2 sided polygon control is the one in the surface editor and that's not working as well as the one that should be in the detail menu.

It should be under detail/polygons/Double sided.

I can't even find it in the interface modifier under the commands list. There doesn't appear to even be a double side command for modeler on this system so I can't put the command where it belongs! What gives?? Anyone with a suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

I believe the default hotkey for it is F2. You can actually attach it to any hotkey you like also.

Thanks, but I can't locate the function in any of the interface or shortcut modifiers. I can't assign it to anything when it doesn't even appear.

Anybody else ever experienced this?

Make Duble Sided should be in the additional section when u goto create a shortcut for it or create a button, I would try adding the the plugin "DoubleSide.p" again, its under "x:\Lightwave\Plugins\Model". If this doesn't work, u could also try deleting your configs(make a backup first) and re-add all the plugins. This should also setup a button to Make double sided in the detail tab where u said it should be.

D'oh!

That was the trick. I didn't think to load plugins. I figured it was part of the initial install. Thanks loads for your quick response everybody.
