• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Voodoo indeed. Thank you. I had to uncheck both "Use wireframe faces" and "Display Wireframe Objects Using Triangle Strips". The plane still has triangles but other shapes do not. Good enough!

And thank you for the link the FSDeveloper; it looks like a great resource.

I am up to Tutorial #6 and searching for some 3-views, eager to get to the next step.
