Hello,
I've created a bezier patch to serve as an engine mount for a scene.
It looks fine from most angles, but when seen head-on it disappears
because it is infinitely thin. Is there any way to add some thickness
to this thing? If not, what would you recommend to replace it? Thanks
in advance.

You might try multiple copies of the patch translated very small amonts.
The program PovCad by Alfonzo Hermeda allows the creation of
bezier patches which can then be extruded to add thickness. Though
I don't believe you can import patches made in other programs due to
implementation differences.

Hi!
Just create another copy of the patch and connected each of the
respective edges with another patch. This can be done in sPatch with the
extrude tool.
