:That a pretty dumb comment Jike. $nocull has plenty of uses. One of it's uses applies to surfaces that need to share the same face, or where an extra face would be a waste of polygons for both brush and model wise performance. It can also be used for foliage, and glass.--[[User:MrFourVideoCards|MrFourVideoCards]] 03:52, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Then please explain to me, why use this command, if you can just apply the material onto the correct side of a face, if it simply is reversed. Ecuse me for my "lack of knowledge"... :( --[[User:Jike|Jike]] 08:29, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
