  1. Hello!  I made a jack-o-lantern in mesh and textured it in PS, but it does not render correctly.  The front "face" shows fine, but the back looks invisible.  This changes as I move the camera so that I can see whatever face is closest to me and not the back.

    I'm currently starting a series of mesh tutorials, as I made this baby just as an experiment.  However, can anyone pinpoint something I did wrong with this specific mesh?  I also uploaded a very simple astronaut helmet and had the same issue.

    My theory is that my problem has come from cutting holes in a mesh sphere, so that the inside AND outside have to be rendered.  I'm thinking that's a no-no, because the insides does not have the faces,vertices, ect.  "Both the helmet and pumpkin were made from a sphere, and I cut holes into the front (one for a face, the other for a... look out type thing).

    Any help you can give would be highly appreciated.  I know I should have watched the videos first, but I really do tend to learn better by jumping in (and then finding out that I have to get out quick, quick, quick!).

    Thank you.

  2. Hello!  Does anyone know if depth of field is a controllable option in Firestorm?  I can't figure it out, and while I have high-end computer.. it doesn't work well with the other available viewers.  Firestorm seems to have the most potential for my system, but I can't find the DoF controls.

     

    Thanks!
