Ok, i started workin on a model yesterday...but for some reason today, the only way that i can make polygons are by using BOX, SPHERE...etc. I cant use the FACE option..and connect 3 vertecies...well...i can, its just that it doesnt DO anything. The program THINKS it made a polygon...cuz when i use SELECT:FACE...it shows it as a face....but when u look at the 3d view, it doesnt show it on there. Also, it doesnt show the lines connecting it...which of course is the way to tell that it is a polygon.

Oh yeah, i opened up an old model that i made...but i COULD make polygons in THAT one...but when i re-opened he one im workin on, it just plain didnt work again.

Does anyone know of any OPTION BUTTON i might have pressed that could cause this to happen?

If any modellers have an answer to this problem, can they plz help me? thnx

enable draw backfaces, its likeley making it backwards in which case use reverse vertex order, ..OR, its grouping it with a hidden group try hitting unhide all, if either of those dont work then your milkshape is screwed

well, what I note "I". do when it does this is select the part u want to hide and regroup it before ya hide it, then hide that group, i rarely encounter this problem, but doing this got me past it everytime
