Default Basic model question

A poly can only be seen from one side right?

In GMax:

How can I make polys visible on both sides?

or...

I want to make an satelite dish, so I make an sphere, cut 2/3 of sphere away, .... now I want the 1/3 of the sphere to invert so I can see the dish

no mirror didn't help ... only made a copy of it, and turned it 180 degree around, with its visible face outwards

Select the dish, go to polygon sub-object mode, and then select all the polygons you want to turn around. Then scroll down the menu on the right, and around half-way down there's a "flip" button. Click it to flip all the polygons around so they face the right way.

or to make them 2 sided, goto the W3D tools and check the '2sided' box. You wont see it as 2 sided in Renx, but once exported to W3D you'll see the faces from both sides.
