Wade, thanks for pointing me in the right direction for the bounding box - worked like a charm. :)<div><br></div><div>I'm still troubled with this weird thing where the walls of my object appear to be missing when looking from the inside. It's like having a hollow open cardboard box that, when you look in from the top, appears to not have sides, but when looking at it from the outside, looks like a normal box. I've checked and my normals are all pointing outward and look good.. Any other ideas?</div>

<div>I forget what the option is, but I

Sorry I'm too busy right not to go try to see what that option is.<br>

<div>I did check the normals, and they're all pointing outward as
you described. I feel like I'm missing something simple here..</div>

Hey all,<br>
<br>
I'm attempting to design some basic things in Blender
and export them into<br>
OpenSim. To be frank, I'm having a devil of a time. My
objects aren't<br>
oriented correctly (for example, a torus that is
oriented to look like a<br>
wheel (on a truck) looks like it's laying on the ground
instead of attached<br>
to the axle.) Some of my objects are missing parts, are
see-through at<br>
certain angles, and I can't figure out how to get that
gosh darn invisible<br>
box off of them so things (such as the soccer ball test
I did) can actually<br>
roll when made physical in OpenSim.<br>
<br>
<br>

<div>
The see through problem is probably the normals need to be
corrected. Press "N" to open the properties, then under
Mesh Display you can turn on Normals to see which way they
are pointing. you want them pointing out, so on the left
side, there are options to recalculate and flip. You
might have to just select the faces that are wrong and
flip them.<br>
