ambient occlusion problem
I'm expriencing a problem, whenever I apply my abbient occlusion map to my character the mesh becomes transparent, I have modelled plenty of game stuff, but this has never happend before, can anyone help?
I have deleted all the history and all the normals are facing the right way, so i'm clueless as to what might be casuing this

"Your weapons are no match for ours! People of Mars, surrender!"
"Um, this isn't Mars. This is Earth."
"Earth? Earth-with-nuclear-weapons Earth?"
"Yes."
[long pause] "Friend!!"

Sometimes when you connect a file through the materials "colour" channel, it sometimes also connects the same file through the transparency channel. Try right-hand clicking on "transparency" channel, under "Colour" in the material's properties/attributes, and select "break connection".
Thanks man!!!!! I was losing sleep over this problem, I never knew maya would play a new prank like this on me, after all these years of using the software,once again thanks
