Faces are appearing reversed... but in RenX they are correct, and yes i tried reversing them in RenX, and it just got worse...

ANY suggestions would be nice

Yeah it's a problem that occurs normally when you use the create face or create polygon tool. It can also accur when just editing a mesh to make a hole around a object in the ground or just editing the mesh in general. It seems to make the faces in reverse as you can see the non culled face from the back of the mesh. I'd ask Sir Pheonix because he has a good knowledge of using 3DS and Gmax so he might know a way around this. Hope you figure it out anyway.

They appear messed up, but when you look at it in Renx they don't? What do they look messed up in? Commando?

If it looks correct in Renx, but it's messed up in Commando, then most likely it isn't a Renx problem, but a Commando (or a problem with exporting...). Are you able to pinpoint the problem to Renx?

Recruit

I think that happens when you build a backface on the same 3 verts as a frontface. Delete the polys and rebuild them all facing the same direction.

If that's the case... Turn the terrain over, go into sub-object and turn on ignore backfacing, and select all of the polygons, and hit delete... It should only delete the bottom faces...

Unless you're saying you made a plane and it was created with holes in it then I take it you converted it to an editable mesh. The sub-object mode is one of the 5 modes that appear when you converted it to an editable mesh (Vertex, Edge, Face, Polygon, Element). Hope this helps out a little.
