VRML has an extra polygon layer on back
(1/1)
koeg:
Hi, I have this keyboard project(https://github.com/KOEGlike/mito-pcb) that I'm working on right now, but when I export a VRML, it appears that there is a second layer of mesh on the back side (see GIF), which hides some parts of the components.
I can't remove this layer by hand because I use this extension(https://github.com/30350n/pcb2blender) to import the KiCad board to blender with materials, and it would be a hassle to mess with an already textured model
Quick info:
- I used blender4.3 to view the file
- I used KiCad nightly to export the VRML
- here is the [blender project and VRML file](https://github.com/KOEGlike/mito-blend)
- I know the VRML is the problem because when I import the raw VRML file without the fancy extension/add-on I mentioned earlier, it still looks like this, this is what is show in the GIF, and it shows the same extra layer in freecad
Steps to reproduce
1. Clone the repo
2. Open the project in kicad 9
3. Export the VRML from PCB editor
4. View it in blender
