Extractions look like backface culling

hey guys,

I got a problem I've trying to figure out for awhile now. I've been trying to extract things in polygons, but everytime I do, the back of it turns invisible. It looks exactly like backface culling, but I tried turning on/off backface culling and it's still there. I deleted history also, so why is it doing that?

I'm not really sure why your faces are turning transparent, but if you select the extracted faces and then open the hypershade and re-apply the base matterial (lambert 1) it should fix your problem.

Ok, I just tried it, it still didn't work nomatter with what shaders. Maybe I should uninstall and reinstall. Be nice to know what really is the problem though. :-p
