// Error: explodeNurbsShell1 (Explode Nurbs Shell Node): Not a valid NURBS shell. //

probably the largest BUG in Maya (in my opinion) is its funky booleans... not much I can tell you exacept to try it in a different scene file and then importing it when it works. user added image

Red bellows of flame have blackened my stones
Convulsing my frame and cracking my bones
Hell's dragons of steel who roar in their chains
Crawl into my caves to suck out my veins.....
