Back aside from cleaning non-manifold geometry, also make sure that you don't have 2 vertices in places where you think you have only 1. Just select all vertices and do a merge vertices command with a really small value. That should fix any double vertices. Then try to convert to subd. Hope this helps. Elvira

Hi,
Hope I'm posting this right.
I'm following a tut out of Maya Character Animation by Jae-jin Choi and I'm getting odd results. It's a simple head modelling tutorial. Started out with the create polygon tool to draw a profile, extrude the edges, then use the convert poly to subdiv tool to get a subd surface to work with from there. Problem is the convert poly to subdiv won't work. I check the scripteditor and get a message about one or more vertices being nonmanifold, and I should run Polygons -> Cleanup with the nonmanifold option on to correct this. I do so, then do the convert poly to subdiv and I get an odd subdiv surface where the faces seem to have been smoothed individually and don't actually come in contact with each other.
So. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
