Hey all,
I am creating my model by using the create polygon tool and extruding edges. I have made many models this way but this time I am having a problem I have never seen before. Something happens and where there used to be on vertice there are now at least 2 and extra faces. This completely messes up the model. I included a screenshot to sow you whats going on. Can anyone tell me whats going on?

Ugh, that's one of the worst things to see, you do a lot of work on something and then you notice that there are two faces.

Now I'm not 100% sure, but I think one solution was to drag-select every vertex and do a merge vertecies with a very small distance. Backup your file before you try anything but I believe that will fix the problem.

Yeah, that's what I have been doing. But it would be nice to now why this is going on because it's extremely time consuming to check every vertice.

I mean you can select every vertex without checking them and merge. If you choose the right distance it will only merge bugged vertecies.

Hi,

The next time u start modelling, try to use the tools after reseting them in ui cause it might have a customized setting which u have already used.

its the same as what glick_c said..
do a poly vertice merge by selecting all the vertices and giving as minimal threshold value as possible such that all ur verts get merged...
