Hi back,

that's because of some triangles are oriented in the wrong way (clock-wise instead of
counterclock wise). they are not rendered and stay invisible when you see them from
the back side. That means viewing vector and normal vector have same direction.
Turn off culling mode and set BackFaceNormalFlip to true to get both side rendered
and shaped triangles.
