Hi all,

Is there any reason as to why importing DWG files will create Duplicated Faces in Max,

I have a DWG file that comes in as linked gemoetry, I go to utilities panel in Max and Collapse the file to one editable mesh, then on the Model apprears duplicated faces, even if I weld all the Verts together the duplicate face is still there, as well as this the normals are also sporadically flipped,

I have never used Auto CAD before and so I am trying to find out where the problem could lie so I can fix it,

I have tried weldign verts in Max but the face still sits on top of the other crosshatching as you Navigate in the viewport

Many thanks in advance
Mark
