Can't render front and back of walls

[David Neale]

Howdy.

Using Spotlight in VW2009 Educational, I am unable to render the fronts or backs of walls. Only the edges are rendered. Of course I have set "Part" in the object information window to Overall. No luck. Style is "un-styled". Map type is plane. My workaround is to convert the wall to mesh but I'd like to be able to keep the object as a wall. Any wisdom would be deeply appreciated. Thanks.

Set Part to Left. In the next pulldown, pick a texture. (default is None or Class)

Set Part to Right. In the next pulldown, pick a texture.

That should do it.

Worked like a charm. Thanks a million!

I just found this out recently.

If you're setting the Overall button to Class Texture with all the other parts set to "Revert to Overall", you won't get a texture on your wall unless you have the center texture checked under the wall tab in the class attributes edit window for that particular class. Apparently that's where the "Overall (class texture)" is connected to, the center texture.
