If i import a selfmade .obj file, i have follwing problem:
One side of the object is textured but the backside is invisible.

Why?

Make sure its a 2 sided object..... Otherwise only one side shows (In AC3D look at the control buttons in the lower left....)

i donīt find such option :-(
I can set textures for the front and for backsides, and i can select backside in the menu, but if i load it to OPS,only the front side is visible :-(((((((

The option is in the OpenPlane poly flags, rather than the editor. The poly flags are in the OpenPlane doc.

The other option is to create another poly using the same vertices, facing the other way. You have to do this anyway if you want a different texture or colour for the back side.
