How do I fix this? It is only two out of 123 surfaces. How do I fix?

I've never actually seen this one. I think it's something like you have vertices of a surface in the same place so that the surface has no width (it is 1 dimensional instead of 2). That's just a vague recolection though. Maybe somebody else can tell you better.

Ok, Thanks MikeC. I just tested the level and it works Fine. The two serfaces i was talking about are choppy. Like when you run into them you seem to get you stuck. These are two top serfaces in a big dome. And in JED, I cant select these surfaces without pushing f10 and "Go To". Maybe this helps out a little bit

Select the surfaces and go to the editing,recovery menu, try the inverting normals option. I may be wrong though [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

If the surface appears to only be a single line, then select it and press Alt + Delete. This will solve your problem. However, if it DOES appear to be a normal surface then try deleting each vertex of the surface until you've found the right one.
