I'm not talking about face normals, I'm talking about vertex normals. 3ds may not deal with them. If one vertex is used in more than one smoothing group, then that vertex has more than one normal. I could derive the number of vertex normals by figuring the # of verticies used by more than one smoothing group then double it, but that's a pain. Do you have any other suggestions? thanks
