[@Gameatronic9000]

40 min of shift+n, ctrl+n, shift+ctrl+n, other options, manually recalculating. this is just the greatest answer. THANK YOU, this will save so much time over trying to do it manually

[@WSBPhantom]

This guy out here saving lifes thank you so much!

[@hgtm_notlimahw]

Just amazing!! Has helped with my STLs for 3d printing so much!!

[@rbgohome]

Awesome guide.... thank you! It does not only apply to 3D entities but also to STL export for 3D printing. I used a cylinder as a starting point, removed the top and bottom faces and started edge loop offset extrusions to the outside, round to the top edge again, resulting in a torus with a special cross section profile. The exported STL still assumed that that initial cylinder wall was a solid to the inside, while in Blender edit I removed them. Flipping those initial wall face normals was the key. Thanks again, for sharing this piece of insight.

[@light2267]

Hello! I have a question, right now I am trying to do a kind of hat for roblox studio but all the faces that are inside the hat and the inside part of the bottom of the hat are red, I tried the first method of the video and all the faces inside of the hat I mentioned before are invisible. Could you please give me some advice with it and also I hope you are ok since your comment was 9 months ago. I'm sorry if there are some grammar mistakes, english isn't my first language. Blesses.

[@rbgohome]

​@@light2267 Is the head a solid volume, or is it just planes? In case of planes, you need to thicken the subject so it becomes a solid, with planes having normals to the outside/worldspace..

[@pakapeta7772]
